Brenda Michelson, Program Director, SOA Consortium

The SOA Consortium's community of practice has created a Business-Driven SOA Planning Framework that identifies and provides advice on the major activities in a business focused SOA journey. Those activities pertain to SOA drivers, program management, baseline, project execution, operations, portfolio lifecycle management, governance and measurement. The intent of this framework is to help practitioners establish and execute SOA roadmaps that match business, organizational and technology needs. This session will provide an overview of the framework from both consumption and contribution points-of-view.
