Ray ValdesIn many organizations, developers and architects seem to inhabit separate worlds, with different priorities and ways of working. This, despite the fact that these two groups are cut from the same cloth. The value proposition of SOA is to enable complex systems to evolve and adapt to shifting real-world requirements. But often, the concepts of SOA must themselves adapt to meet the real-world circumstances of developers, organizational structure, governance and corporate culture. Conversely, development teams must adapt their skills, processes and vocabulary to meet the challenge of implementing SOA.
Key Issues:
  • How do the core concepts of SOA change when applied to a range of development scenarios?
  • How should development teams change their process to better implement SOA?
  • What tools, techniques and services can help development organizations implement SOA?
