Even as a slow economy continues to pressure IT budgets and staff resources, a top IBM executive says customers are accelerating SOA-driven efforts to drive IT efficiencies and business value – without added pain or expense.
“There is a lot that can be done to accelerate the value of SOA, and it is not as daunting or expensive as some people may make it out to be,” Rob High, an IBM Fellow and Chief Architect for IBM’s SOA Foundation, told Integration Developer News.
High will share the secrets and details of SOA success with CTO, architects and IT managers at Impact2010, Big Blue’s annual SOA and BPM event for IT and business leaders to be held May 2-7 in Las Vegas, Nev. He will be among hundreds of other SOA experts from IBM and customers at the event.
