Sponsor: Progress Software, Featured Analyst Firm: Gartner
Speakers: Massimo Pezzini, Hub Vandervoort

Service-oriented architectures will almost certainly be federated. If you’re responsible for SOA, integration, messaging or related IT infrastructure for your enterprise this Webinar will help you successfully deal with SOA in-the-large – in large enterprises, in distributed enterprises and where organizational priorities, technology strategies and budget constraints may force very different SOA infrastructure choices. 

In this Webcast, an industry expert from Gartner, Inc., and SOA infrastructure expert, Hub Vandervoort, CTO at Progress Software, take a close look at how companies that are working in federated environments need to approach the governance of their service-oriented architectures in both run-time and design-time contexts.  By listening to this Webcast you’ll gain important insights into:

• How to isolate and manage multiple SOA domains
• Which aspects of SOA you should control at the edge
• The importance of semantic control at the interface between domains
• How event-driven ESBs can ensure loose coupling between SOA stacks

Watch this Webcast now and get the guidance you need to succeed in a federated SOA environment.
