As a consultant I do fly a lot. Its sucks to do that but at the same time I do get time to read through some of my pending list of books. Right now I am reading "Best of software writing 1" by Joel Spolsky . Anyways, the "Starbucks does not use two-phase commit" is an awesome article. In the synchronous world where most of us leave in, its fascinating how effective asynchronous solutions could be.
Based on my previous experience I could say that messaging solutions is not straightforward to implement especially if you haven't done it before. Its a exotic world of xml messages, its has its own patterns and challenges.
