Definitely yes... When it comes to SOA and BPM, data integration is the elephant in the room: Everybody knows it’s an issue, but people seldom address it directly. Occasionally,it comes up with at least among SOA experts – but then the topic will just disappear.

Data Integration has/will always be the problem if Data Access issues remains uninteresting to key stakeholders.

If you cannot get to your data you will never be ability pursue an form of enterprise wise agility. Sadly, and as obvious as this sounds, our industry is still about the Application first, and the underlying data substrate a distant second.

Application Logic comes and goes, but database schemas (irrespective of database model) are with you in some form or another forever :-)

SOA’s inattention to data heterogeneity at the schema and representational levels remains an inherent flaw (imho).

Data Integration is a problem that will ultimately crystallize the intrinc value of the Linked Data meme in the enterprise realm.

Well said... one cannot effectively deliver on their promise” if they don’t address data problems, including inaccuracies, semantic issues and inconsistencies. The effect is that SOA and BPM are often restricted to “secondary business areas,” such as HR and operations, where the data is simple and static and the processes are well-defined.
