SOAWorld Conference & Expo 2007 West

The Number One SOA Event Comes to San Francisco
Colocated with the Virtualization Conference & Expo
Download the Official Show Directory Now
SOA World Conference & Expo 2007 West will take place on November 12-13, 2007 at the Grand Hyatt in San Francisco.
Service-oriented architectures (SOAs) have evolved over the past few years out of the original vision of loosely coupled web services replacing constrained, stovepiped applications throughout enterprise IT. Every major enterprise technology vendor today has developed its own SOA strategy, supported by innumerable mid-size companies and start-ups offering specific SOA aspects or entire solutions. This explosive growth in SOA technology is in response to a global demand--IDC estimates that spending on SOA services alone will grow from $8.6 billion to more than $33 billion by 2010.
SOA World Conference & Expo 2007 brings together the best minds in the business to San Francisco for a two-day conference that offers comprehensive coverage of SOA and what it means to enterprise IT today. As Zapthink analyst Jason Bloomberg has noted, "SOA involves rethinking how the business leverages IT in many various ways." Attend SOA World Conference & Expo 2007 West and learn from more than 100 speakers about how SOA is transforming business--and the way IT and business managers think about their businesses, processes, and technology.
The colocation of SOA World Conference & Expo 2007 West and Virtualization Conference & Expo delivers the most relevant content to IT and business. Conference attendees will be able to choose from four great tracks at this year's event. Mix and match all you want, or slot into your favorite topic for the duration! The tracks include:
• Web 2.0/AJAX and SOA
• Interop Standards and Services
• Real-World SOA
• SOA Technology
• Virtualization
• Specially Selected Hot Topics
A Duo of Power Panels
This year's conference will also feature two Power Panels. Don't miss the SOA/Web 2.0/AJAX Power Panel, and Virtualization Power Panel. The Power Panels are FREE to all attendees, and will be recorded for broadcast by SYS-CON.TV.
Receive a Week's Worth of Education in Two Information-Packed Days!
The best news for this year's conference delegates is that the "Golden Pass" registration now provides full access to all conference sessions.
Additionally, after the conference we will mail you the complete content from all of the conference sessions in convenient DVDs. This on-demand DVD archive set is sold separately for $695. The DVD set includes all sessions from the simultaneous tracks that you can't attend in person.

Boss on How Silverlight 2
Fits in with Media and
RIA Scenarios By RIA News Desk  Scott Guthrie isn't much
bothered whether they're
called 'Rich Internet

- Microsoft, where
Guthrie is GM of the
Developer Division and
therefore head of the
Redmond team behind
Silverlight 2, uses both.

Management By Sean Rhody  It seems like not a day
goes by lately in which
some new story of
malfeasance in office

Protocol By Maureen O'Gara  According to CIO.com,
Cisco has a new
SOAP-replacing messaging
protocol called Etch,

(UAE), to integrate
client/server
applications. Cisco
reportedly intends to

summer as part of UAE 2.5

Distributed Genetics By Derek Ferguson  I've always been puzzled
by the ability of some
traders to consistently

say that anyone who is

depressions, etc.) is
most likely able to do so
because they are getting

Data-critical SOA
Application By SOA World Magazine News Desk  SOA implementations are
increasingly reliant on
streams of data that are

delivered and sourced
from mixed

Ounce of Prevention is
Worth a Pound of Cure By SOA World Magazine News Desk  While SOA can deliver
dramatic cost reduction
of an organization's

Governance, Management,

the Service-Oriented

important aspects of the

Need to Be With SOA? By SOA World Magazine News Desk  The success of SOA runs
two ways. SOA serves as

by SOA. The latest survey
data shows most
