The Enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) conference will present an overview and in depth technical talks on how to leverage the principals of Service-Oriented Architectures to reduce cost and risk, improve efficiency and agility and liberate your organization from the unpredictable change of technology. The conference will focus on 3 parts: Architectural and Organizational roadmap and Real-world SOA experiences and is spread over a one day conference.
Enterprise SOA Architectures
The enterprise software architects are constantly confronted with changes to and expansion of functionality that increase system complexity and reduce efficiency.
During this track we'll evaluate how SOA can help us cope with the needs of an ongoing incremental process of optimization, but also list what choices architects have at their disposal within the SOA space.
Organizational Aspects
Most of the enterprise IT problems are not of a technical nature but can be found on the organizational level. During this conference different speakers will explain how they've approached a SOA project from an organizational point-of-view.
