Implementing SOA Governance in Service Driven Enerprise

I conducted a research on how to implement SOA Governance in companies with existing SOA. If you are familiar with SOA, you are aware of the organizational and business challenges (besides technical ones) it imposes to adopters. Most of the content and a case study I developed myself was based on my experience in companies driven by SOA initiative but with little or no Governance. 

By definition, 

SOA governance is the ability to ensure that all of the independent (SOA) efforts (whether in the design, development, deployment, or operations of a service) come together to meet enterprise requirements.

The topic is quite complex and broad in nature and its comprehension might seem a challenge for those new to it. However, for companies looking into serious SOA implementations, Governance is the way to go. Here is a link to an article by the authors of an excellent reference book, which I used in my research. I would highly recommend this for those who want to get started with SOA Governance.
