SOA in the Real World
From Enterprise Java Australia
JAVA SOA in the Real World
15 July, 2008
Event Sponsored by Unico
Event Summary
The application of SOA principles to deliver a mission critical system can often provide the business with a solution that is not only agile, but is expensive and underperforms. This event will be presenting some of the challenges faced in architecting and developing Enterprise Solutions that not only deliver the promise of SOA, but ensure mission critical basics such as scalability, reliability and availability are not compromised.
Furthermore, while SOA is becoming more widely adopted, if not understood, it seems to be synonymous with using Web Services implemented using SOAP. While this has some good features and is the result of a lot of work by a number of major vendors over many years there is also the REST model which is a very different approach. At this event will discuss how REST and SOAP compare and where they are the same and look to see where each should be used and why. The real question is not REST vs SOAP but how to make SOA effective.
