Transition to Enterprise
SOA: This half-day briefing introduces and explains a comprehensive and proven approach for implementing an Enterprise-scale Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Successful Web service implementations no longer make news. Most organizations that have undertaken pilot and small-scale Web services projects report technical success. These early tactical Web services projects prove that the core SOA technologies (messaging, SOAP, WSDL, etc.) work. But, the real test comes when organizations attempt a SOA on an Enterprise basis. Because Enterprise SOA tends to disrupt everything it touches, successful Enterprise SOA implementation requires effective planning and management to minimize and channel the disruption. Many organizations that enjoy tactical SOA success decide to embark on Enterprise SOA without understanding the magnitude of the transition from tactical Web services to strategic SOA. We call these organizations “Committed, but Unaware”. Based on nearly 5 years of successful experience, the Transition to Enterprise SOA approach focuses on the Technology, Methodology and Sociology issues that organizations face as they implement SOA as a core strategy and as they transition into the strategic use of Web service collections, Internal SOA and External B2B SOA. Transition to Enterprise SOA models the SOA stages through which organizations typically evolve, describing the characteristics, issues and challenges of each stage. Participants learn how a multi-dimensional approach that addresses Technology, Methodology and Sociology, coupled with a multi-discipline service methodology that combines Education, Training, Coaching and Consulting, helps organizations to plan and execute successful SOA initiatives.
