Architecture SOA Data Aggregation Best Practices
I'm just starting to think about implementing a SOA in my organisation and have a particular query/problem I was wondering if people had any experiences or best practices with, relating to combining data from different services... For example: Say I have a service which retrieves customer information such as GetCustomerInfo.
