As companies continue to leverage a services-orientation to get more out of their applications, business processes and IT, the challenges of moving from a pilot to a full scale production SOA deployment can be daunting. As SOA deployments cross departmental, organizational, and infrastructure boundaries, the ability to adequately pre-test can be limited without the right tools. When adequate testing is not done, unplanned events can cripple the deployment, or worse yet, have significant negative impact on the overall business. Come join us and learn how best to take an SOA pilot to a full scale, company-wide production, and achieve value for your business more quickly!
