The Actional SOA Acceleration Series is designed to help your organization increase the rate of adoption and ensure successful migration from Web Services pilots to SOA production. The series is based on Actional's extensive domain and field experience in securing, deploying, and managing SOA applications for Fortune 500 customers across various industries. It is designed to bring real-world experiences to your project in order to shorten the time-to-market of your service-based application, as well as facilitate the design, development, and delivery of a high-quality business solution.

Actional's SOA Acceleration Series is comprised of four integrated program offerings that span the full range of the SOA migration lifecycle. These programs are available as individual engagements or in any combination:

  • Analyzing SOA Security Risks — Educates your SOA team on the security options and issues typical of most deployments. Provides best practices guidance on implementing a highly secure SOA that adheres with the overall security strategy.
  • Assessing SOA and Managing SOA Growth — Maps our industry leading products to your SOA deployment initiative. Ensures ongoing services are managed with a clear growth strategy, so control can be maintained while customer and client expectations are being met.
