Combining SOA and cloud computing is a clear trend, one that’s driving many in IT to look more seriously at cloud-delivered computing resources. Yet while these enterprise-to-cloud systems promise to increase efficiency and reduce costs, they also bring new challenges. Managing transactions—both on-premise and cloud-based—requires a best-of-breed runtime governance layer that’s able to remove the risks inherent to implementing and operating SOA systems using cloud computing.
In this informative webcast we’ll take you through the basics of implementing SOA systems that leverage cloud computing. We’ll focus on how to manage these systems, taking into account the special requirements posed by transactions flowing from the enterprise to the cloud and back.
SOA and cloud computing expert David Linthicum, author of “Cloud Computing and SOA Convergence in Your Enterprise,” will walk you through the approach of bringing transactional SOA to the clouds, and the best practices in SOA governance. Ed Horst, Vice President of Product Strategy for industry leader AmberPoint, will cover best practices for managing composite application that leverage cloud computing.
This Webcast will not only tell you what needs to be done, but how to do it, as well as covering core enabling technologies that will work for your enterprise the first time.
