Overview:

The supply chain vision applies to the world of Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and Enterprise development. Historically, this software development approach yielded vertical silos where everything was done in one place or application. Database layers feed raw content to various processing steps, which display the end results through a client-facing technology. This approach has dominated the industry's thinking for quite some time, but this is starting to change. The single-application strategy has the same costly duplication and inefficiencies as Henry Ford's assembly-line approach. One cannot reuse functionality locked behind the application boundary. Not every step takes the same amount of time.
