Writing in his AMIS Technology blog, Lucas Jelema 
offers his take on the evolution of SOA Governance:
Not too long ago, companies such as Oracle and BEA claimed that all you would need for effective Governance is a Service Registry, such as the one from Systinet, implementing UDDI 3.0, that both these vendors were offering. Then BEA bought Flashline and with its Enterprise Repository product changed its tune completely. Now Oracle purchased BEA and started integrating the mutual product portfolios, it changed its tune in turn. And Governance now is much more than making services discoverable through UDDI. And of course an Enterprise Repository is exactly the thing we all desperately need…
Lucas then provides a nice overview of Oracle Enterprise Repository. Check it out: The world of SOA Governance according to Oracle - Introducing the Enterprise Repository
