In what's becoming a habit, the SOA Consortium will once again host practitioner panels at Gartner's AADI and EA Summits. There are two great panels lined up.
On Wednesday, June 11 at AADI, Todd Biske, Melvin Greer and Mike Kavis will be talking about measuring the value of SOA. Knowing the panelists, I'm sure the discussion will go beyond 'code reuse'. The panel will be moderated by Gartner's Daniel Sholler and SOA-C's Richard Soley.
On Friday, 13 June at EA, John Williams, Maja Tibbling and Marty Colburn will join Todd to discuss SOA & EA lessons learned from the trenches. This panel will be moderated by Gartner's Bruce Robertson and SOA-C's Richard Soley."In this session, several practitioners will share firsthand experience of justifying and measuring the value of their service-oriented architecture (SOA) activities: How to make the initial business case and continuously demonstrate the benefits? What metrics to use? What return on investment (ROI) to expect? What challenges have they encountered, and how did they overcome them?"
"In this user panel, co-moderated by Gartner and the SOA Consortium, several enterprise architecture (EA) practitioners will look at the links, synergies and dependencies between service-oriented architecture (SOA) and EA. How does SOA fit into the EA picture? How can it help make EA more valuable? Does SOA need to be part of a broader EA? Hear the first-hand experience and lessons learned from our panelists, and ask them your own SOA/EA questions."
If you are attending the Gartner events, I highly recommend stopping by these sessions for insights from real-world practitioners.
