Oracle chief SOA technologist Dave Chappell will present a session entitled " SOA Reality Check " at the upcoming SOA World Conference & Expo 2007 East, which will take place June 24-27, 2007, in New York City.
The landscape of Web Services, and the shape of the SOA Infrastructure is changing. Widespread adoption of SOA concepts has gripped the attention of IT organizations worldwide, causing most to charge headfirst into strategic architecture and planning efforts that will have their long reaching effects into the next few decades. Different standards, new technology, and performance and security requirements all have an influence on the outcome of these initiatives. This session will identify the current trends, capabilities and limitations of implementing an SOA, along with the best and worst practices learned from early adopters.
