The SOA Leaders Council, a community of service-oriented architecture (SOA) visionaries supported by AmberPoint, Parasoft, Reactivity, Systinet and ThoughtWorks, today announced it will be expanding its regional forums to bring IT executives together to discuss best practices for SOA. The topic of this quarter's meetings is the best practices to build a compelling business or budget case for SOA implementation. Moderated by leading analyst firm, Gartner, Inc., these forums will feature top analysts and end-user architects who will share their experiences creating an enterprise SOA.
The Council will be discussing the common challenges of building a strong business case for SOA, including translating the technical benefits of SOA into measurable business value. SOA Leaders has already established successful chapters in Chicago and New York. Attendees can learn how their peers are addressing these challenges and gain expert advice from featured Gartner analysts.
