What’s needed now -- Pragmatic SOA with measurable results – in action at HP Software Universe
I think the industry has had enough of espousing the academic promise of SOA at this point. With economic pressures mounting, what we need to see are real results from pragmatic SOA adoption.  The good news is that we are seeing real examples of measurable SOA success in action more and more frequently. Next week is HP Software Universe in beautiful Vienna, Austria.   HP is planning a roster of speakers on the subject of SOA that are reflecting this theme.  In particular, there is a focus on SOA Governance, which is proving to provide the guidance and discipline IT needs to ensure SOA stays on track.   I plan to blog on the insights from this event shortly.  However, to pique your interest, here are some of the planned sessions: On Tuesday, December 9th, the Austrian Ministry of Finance will be speaking on adopting an IT Governance approach for SOA.  Also on Tuesday, Telecom Italia will be sharing how they established a framework for service quality and reliability through SOA Governance.  HP’s Tim Hall will be speaking on why SOA Governance is necessary to effectively navigate the SOA journey on Wednesday, December 10th.   Also on Wednesday you can hear from HP and one of our partners, Alcatel-Lucent, on how to establish secure SOA Governance for compliance. No flashy “SOA will save the world and slice your toast” presentations… just pragmatic, how-to presentations that will share how SOA and SOA Governance best practices will enable IT to achieve faster return on their SOA investments and keep the SOA train on the track. Stay tuned for the insights from this event.   Also, if you missed the HP and IDC webcast last month that covered customer-experience-based best practices for successful SOA adoption, I encourage you to listen to the replay here.
