Drool, Britannia? Is the UK Failing the Cloud?

By Roger Strukhoff

Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

SOA Web Services Session

What's MIA in SOA!

By: Guy Hoffman

Jun. 5, 2006 09:00 AM

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.
