Webinar Abstract: Optimizing the SOA Lifecycle from Design Time to Runtime with Comprehensive Governance
The process of optimizing the SOA lifecycle centers to a large degree on SOA governance solutions that focus primarily on the runtime aspects of the services environment. The tutorials that follow will lay out definitions of, the need for, and specific solutions for runtime governance.
Web Services Standards Critical for Registries
Web services standards are critical. This is no less true in the case of Web services registries. Standards are essential, in particular for facilitating interoperability between products from vendors such as Actional (SOA management products) and Systinet (Registry products).
A single company cannot provide all the infrastructure services needed for a SOA. SOA is heterogeneous by nature – so it’s important for vendors to work on developing a strong ecosystem of partners
Defining SOA Governance with Web Services Standards
The word “governance” is used in a lot of different contexts; succeeding tutorials will offer definitions of governance and discuss relevant Web services standards as they relate to SOA. In addition, these tutorials examine:
- The question of: "How can we achieve comprehensive SOA governance?"
- The governance roles that Systinet and Actional play
- Technical aspects of a joint Actional/Systinet SOA management solution
- A specific governance example
The following tutorials discuss the above topics in detail:
