Wednesday: Smart SOA™ Strategies for Deeper Alignment & Bluer Horizons
Our Wednesday agenda is all about alignment of business and IT -- and the results YOUR business can achieve. Prominent studies by McKinsey have shown that productivity improvement can be more than doubled through excellence in both business and IT, over business or IT alone. Our IBM and guest speakers will show you how this alignment is easier than ever when Smart SOA™ approaches are combined with the right technologies. In this session you hear how to accelerate alignment by:
- Empowering business users to build "mashups" enabled by Web 2.0 and SOA
- Bringing business and IT together with situational applications built on RESTful SOA
- Managing security and policy in Smart SOA™ environments
- Hearing Smart SOA™ 'best practices' -- in a panel discussion with John Mitchell from PepBoys, Anne McDiamid from Spotlight, and Paul Gould of Norwich Union
