Giga Stats. PC Magazine has published the pie-chart results of a Giga Information Group survey of IT execs. Highlights:
- Only 1% have achieved "full integration." 76% are still in research, investigation or prototyping.
- 28% are thinking external versus 71% internal.
- 39% see "business value/profitability" as the biggest challenge facing their web-service strategy. 32% say it's the limitations of technology and standards.
- 89% say that either their current main application or tool vendor will be central to their strategies. Only 3% see a dedicated web-services vendor as the key.
