I predict serious problems in SOA & IoT  where SOA will be undeservedly blamed again like in the case with Web and Web Services.Â
"connected-everything computing platforms" are not and likely will not be behaving as Services: they will behave as inter-connected independent platforms that do not care about other platforms. Connecting two applications/platforms via a Web Services or another API omits integration between them, i.e. explicit integration where the operational model of one _depends_ on the delivery of the outcomes from another (supplier).Â
Such integration may be gained in a few years after rivers or sweat and 'blood' if, hopefully, SOA will be separated from connectivity between independent platforms. However, this requires a mentality shift from independent applications with API toward service-oriented dependent systems with standardised API where connectivity is a derivative of the system's business, not the other way around.
Technology, again, gets in a mud by doing what it can do instead of what is should do to realise a business task orchestrated sensors/devices.
Connectivity and integration (a dependency on the suppliers integrated in internal processing) are two different 'animals', like cats and tigers.

 <<No segment of information technology is an island today, so enterprise and service-oriented architectures (SOA) must evolve quickly to manage and moderate connected-everything computing platforms. Managing and capitalizing on the interrelated nature of technologies while maintaining control is the biggest challenge for enterprise architects these days, experts say.This will be a big year for SOA, as broader use of application program interfaces (APIs) spread services architecture responsibilities beyond IT."In 2016, we will see innovations in connectivity that will make integration available for developers and business users alike, empowering greater connectivity and new sources of revenue across the organization," George Gallegos, CEO of Jitterbit, said.>>You can find the rest
