The Most Significant SOA Events of 2009!

In Harsh Economic Conditions, Businesses Have More Need to Become Flexible and Agile,
Not Less

Call for Papers Expires June 30th!
16th International SOA World Conference & Expo 2009 West [Click Here]

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is actively enabling component reuse today and helping companies leverage their existing IT investments.

In these recessionary times when every IT dollar must be made to count, the 15th International SOA World Conference & Expo (June 22-23, 2009, in New York) will be about showing attending delegates how their business or organization can start doing the same, and offering them resources, ideas and examples they can apply immediately.

This June's SOA World, which is the world’s number one longest-running SOA event, will feature parallel content-rich tracks reflecting the worldwide adoption of the distributed computing paradigm, in which web services are deployed through specific service-oriented architectures and in which reusable components are core to the overall vision.

The technical program in June in New York City will provide a framework about how to understand policies, composites, lifecycle governance, loose coupling, heterogeneous distributed systems, adaptability vs. stability, service portfolio management – every relevant aspect of SOA as a framework for constructing and interlinking a company’s backend systems with the overall goal of lowering cost and adding flexibility.

Many organizations have already adopted SOA development models to deliver flexible and agile application components, but SOA is about people as much as technology which is why so many companies send delegates to SOA World to accelerate their journey toward becoming SOA-enabled enterprises.

Architects, developers and managers making SOA design decisions will learn about CIO-pleasing governance principles and much more. There's simply no other conference like it.

The event is co-located with the 8th International AJAXWorld RIA Conference & Expo.

Come join us in New York's midtown Manhattan in June!

Delegates Will Learn How SOA Can
• Help their businesses respond more quickly and cost-effectively to changing market conditions
• Promote the goal of separating users (consumers) from the service implementations
• Let them achieve the optimum balance between business needs, technology potential, and IT costs
