That happens often, I believe. The way I usually explain it is that the
"A" in "SOA" implies technology (not another type of architecture - i.e.
not a home architecture), which means that SOA is about technology
supporting business and mission capabilities, etc. etc.

an anecdote of minor interest. We had a student in our office that did
his thesis on SOA. got a very good grade, has a nice job now. This guy
was quite smart and technically competent as well, I attempted a few
times to get a description of SOA out of him. I never did get anything
that I recognized as being technical, although whenever he talked about
it he got that abstracted look that I get trying to explain various
technical things to people. But anyway, I DID manage to confirm from him
that both REST and SOAP-based webservices were SOA.
Not sure if that helps narrow it down though ;)
Cheers,
Bryan Rasmussen
