Once upon a time, data
modeling played a central
role in the process of
developing applications.
Thus far in the SOA era,
there has been a heavy
emphasis on process, and
data has all-too-often
been lost in the SOA
shuffle. In this talk, we
present a data model for

The workshop is a
hands-on session focusing
on data access and data
services issues, problems
and solutions. It's an
opportunity for audience
members to view and
discuss problems with a
panel of experts. The
goal of the session is to
engage the audience using
walk...
The new wave of Web
applications are built on
technologies such as AJAX
and Microsoft
Silverlight, which enable
developers to build
better, richer user
experiences. These
technologies bring a
shift in how applications
are organized, including
a stronger separation...
A panel of experts and
executives from
organizations that are
leading providers and
consumers of technology
will discuss trends and
important technologies
for enterprise and
Internet computing. The
experts will discuss the
role of databases and
database technology...
URIs are the lingua
franca of the web. They
are in every web page and
every HTTP request. In a
practical sense, they
represent the realization
of the web. Without them,
the web would cease to
exist. The situation is
very different in the
world of the RDBMS. Here,
...
The ever-increasing
movement towards
implementing complex
SOA-based applications
has triggered a direct
attention of leading
industry researchers and
practitioners to the
subject of layering in
such applications, in
general, and the
relationship between the
fiel...
SOA is mostly associated
with technologies such as
BPEL, SCA and Web
Services. But does SOA
really imply these
technologies? In this
session we will show how
you can use the service
oriented approach while
staying inside the Java
world. jBPM is a powerful
lightwei...
As SOA rapidly becomes
the standard for
enterprise architectures,
the need for robust
technologies for data
access and data
integration has become
more critical then ever
before. Due to the vital
role that data plays both
in business and systems
operations, databa...

While SOA can deliver
dramatic cost reduction
of an organization's
business operations, it
is a complex,
multidisciplinary
undertaking, and
therefore introduces
significant risk. This
session presents a list
of the most important
risk factors and ways to
mitigat...
Popular assumptions can
often be dangerous. We
will start by considering
how the many unique
architectural
characteristics of SOA,
such as loose-coupling,
can actually be a
two-edged sword affecting
the requirements, nature
and success of many
important aspects of...
Exploring the boundaries
between the Enterprise
and the Internet, this
talk focuses on
Architectural approaches
from the service pattern,
process pattern and event
pattern to help SOA
practitioners understand
topics such as Web 2.0,
AJAX, SaaS, Social
Networks and...
The success of SOA runs
two ways. SOA serves as
the catalyst for
organizational change,
yet an organization must
be ready to embrace these
new dimensions opened up
by SOA. The latest survey
data shows most
organizations are just
starting on their SOA
journeys. Why...
Dramatic industry changes
- including vendor
consolidation,
outsourcing and the
growth of open source -
highlight the need for a
better way. When a SOA
implementation costs too
much, the culprit is
often the old-fashioned,
proprietary and expensive
server or hub-b...
Service Oriented
Architectures (SOA) can
deliver tremendous value
in flexibility,
adaptability and cost
savings. But SOA
environments are complex
by definition, with lots
of loosely coupled
components and a
potentially vast
combination of platforms,
software, da...

Service orientation is
one of the most popular
trends of these recent
years, but there are not
any metrics on it. Hence
you can not consume SOA
in a project with a
specific measuring. On
the other side, Unified
Process (especially RUP)
has powerful abilities on

It seems that Service
Oriented Architecture
(SOA) continues to be
this year's hot buzzword,
rather than a
well-defined, meaningful
and valuable part of the
Enterprise Architecture
landscape. Before the
term fades away
completely, perhaps we
should agree what's
v...
What is BPEL? What is
XPDL? How are they
different? What is the
best use for each? What
is BPMN, and why should I
care? Which of these are
primarily designed to
help IT at a technical
level, and which help an
organization at a
business level? Amongst
the flurry of...
This session will
investigate what is
happening out there in
the world of Mobility
that uses Services, some
are calling this MOA
(Mobile Oriented
Architecture). We will
also discuss
architectures,
application design &
considerations for
mobility 
Adoption of federated
identity technology has
been slower than the hype
might indicate, despite
the maturity of standards
such as SAML 2.0 and Web
Services Security. This
presentation examines the
distinct business and
technical identity
management issues in both

Many organizations make
the faulty assumption
that SOA is a panacea
that can, and should be,
applied to every
situation. The reality is
that service orientation
is not the right answer
for every scenario. The
expense of service
orientation cannot always
be recoupe...
Open source has made
significant inroads into
middleware deployments in
the enterprise. More and
more, open source is
being used to deliver the
benefits of SOA and open
source to the enterprise.
There are many custom
Enterprise Service Bus
deployments waiting to be ...
We are entering an era of
Rich Internet
Applications (RIA) and
enhancing the user
experience of consumers
of the services becomes
an important part in
designing and
implementing SOA. But if
you decide to develop
rich clients, you'll be
facing the dilemma -
which...
SOA is about people as
much as technology. This
talk will demonstrate how
adding a layer of social
(or 'Web 2.0') features -
things like tags,
comments and syndication
feeds - to your SOA
infrastructure can
provide fertile ground to
help grow a vibrant and
connect...
Managing Web Services in
production is no easy
task. Ensuring that
services follow corporate
security and SOA
governance requirements,
monitoring compliance
with individual SLAs,
preventing one client
from degrading the
performance of others and
ensuring services ...
Development of
service-oriented
environments is an
evolutionary process for
organizations of all
sizes. The architecture
and design decisions made
by system architects and
developers will impact
manageability and
flexibility of service
infrastructures.
Efficient...
This session will
illustrate how
service-orientation
brings about the ability
for organizations to see
changes in business
processes reflected
quickly in their business
systems by discussing
real-world applications
of SOA as applied to
supply-chain management.
SOA implementations are
increasingly reliant on
streams of data that are
time-critical, reliably
delivered and sourced
from mixed
infrastructures in a
highly distributed
environment. Data
formats, delivery
mechanisms, fault
tolerance capabilities
and stateful se...
