What's MIA in SOA!

The promise of SOA is clear — Increased agility,
reduced costs, tighter alignment between the business and the application logic
that runs the business. What’s missing however is the process to get from your
existing enterprise application architecture to the promise of SOA, and the
ability to ensure that once you get there, you stay there. Mapping existing
business services to the logic that actually executes these services within
existing applications provides organizations with the ability to promote service
candidates from within existing applications and databases, while deprecating
duplicative or redundant logic. Additionally once a stable of services exists,
active governance alerts organizations to the creation of newly developed
duplicative logic or services. This session will outline the 5 step process to
adopt SOA and to ensure governance with enterprise objectives once you are
there.
