Experts to Hash out SOA Governance Best Practices at ebizQ's Virtual Conference

09/23/2008

ebizQ.net (http://www.ebizq.net), the Insider's Guide to Business and IT Agility, today announced that six of the industry's leading experts will participate in a panel discussion on SOA Governance and IT Governance during its September 24th SOA Governance virtual conference. The expert panelists include Anne Thomas Manes of the Burton Group, Jason Bloomberg of Zapthink, Frank Martinez of SOA Software, Dan Foody of Progress Software, John Michelsen of iTKO and Ed Horst of Amberpoint. The panel will be moderated by leading independent SOA analyst and ZDNet contributor, Joe McKendrick.



During the panel discussion, participants will discuss how organizations are implementing SOA governance and review what is working, what isn't, and the tools and techniques others have found to be successful. In doing so, they will answer questions, such as the following: - Is SOA Governance a part of IT Governance or should it be separate?

- Who in the organization should be responsible for SOA Governance?

- Is ITIL suitable for SOA Governance or does it need to be extended?
