Tyler Jewell on JCA versus Web Services

I just ran across this article identifying the differences between JCA and Web Services. The lack of thought scared me - it really scared me since it was the BEA evangalist that was doing the speaking.

Tyler believes that, "The Biggest Difference Is Intrusion" - I'm guessing that Tyler hasn't spent much time with the BEA team that is working on web services.

Should I expect my business partners to integrate their processes via JCA? Should I expect business dialects to be created based on the JCA? Is JCA a loosely coupled paradigm for programming? Should I orchestrate JCA's? Is JCA the preferred method to connect to .Net? What if I don't even use Java - is it still a good idea?

Intrusion???
