Service-Oriented Architecture Conference 2010

In 2010, the key theme for IT departments continues to be how to streamline operations. There is greater pressure on budgets and all spending must add demonstrable value to the business.

With the business putting a more watchful eye on all departments, you will be under pressure to ensure that IT is better aligned with the goals of the business and this requires greater flexibility.

SOA has been seen as a conduit for greater organisational flexibility, but this is no longer enough. IT professionals want to know how SOA can be best leveraged as the technical foundation for newer initiatives in order to become even more efficient in terms of both times and costs savings.

IDC's 2010 Service-Oriented Architecture Conference will examine the hottest topics, including:

* Why SOA builds the common building block for BMP and cloud computing?
* What role does virtualisation play?
* Can SOA be implemented with open source components?
* How can IT leverage its SOA investment and communicate better with business folk?
