Business Agility -the promise of BPM, is delivered through SOA based BPM implementations. The agility which Business envisions, IT can provide effortlessly with SOA. There are anecdotal reports which cite reductions in costs, improvement in time-to-market and productivity. While BPM and SOA implementations are increasing, are they delivering on the promised agility and reduced IT costs? BPM-SOA implementations are large, long running programs in enterprises, which turn into horror stories if not handled properly. Also, BPM-SOA have many entry points; business needs like M&As, process standardization and IT initiatives like Application Rationalization, B2B integration, EAI etc. Several issues need to be considered spanning complex business processes, process measures, evolving products, technologies and standards, existing IT infrastructure, legacy reuse, Business-IT divide, management commitment, change management, etc. Several do's and don'ts are published on SOA and BPM, but putting down an integrated strategy with a long term vision is a challenge.
This session will focus on strategies to maximize agility of BPM and SOA covering methods, technical best practices, process considerations, people and governance with takeaways for business and IT groups. These strategies will support the compelling business case for BPM -SOA to move from Rapid ROI to increased Agility to innovation.

Multi-tenancy refers to the ability to run multiple users of an application on a shared infrastructure. Such an infrastructure makes oblivious the need for having a dedicated infrastructure for each user or user group. This helps in the economies of scale by saving on the per user cost of operations.
Several SaaS based applications like SalesForce.com provide a fine grained multi-tenant model. The common way to implement multi-tenancy is at the data layer, however this introduces a fair set of challenges when one decides to move to the cloud. Most solutions would focus around spreading the users across the cloud, however, what happens when a user is large enough to spread across the cloud? If you have an existing application, it requires a complete rewrite and also forces fairly significant changes to the existing data model. The current set of multi-tenant practices do not address the challenges of dynamic elasticity. The session tries to look at the challenges and possible solutions for the context
Takeaways from the session
- Understand Multi-tenancy
- Current ways to handle multi-tenancy
- Problems with Multi-tenancy for dynamic elasticity
- Solution to multi-tenancy for the cloud
- Code walkthrough of the proposed solution

The constant rush to new fads and fashions in the Information Technology industry have done little to improve overall software quality; and as computing moves to the cloud, apparently out of our control, quality becomes even more important. Satellite launches famously fail, medical devices famously overdose patients and engines still shut down in flight. Best practices and standards for managing, measuring and improving software implementation processes have had some success (most notably CMMI), but incorrect and incomplete coverage in the industry has left us in a mostly unchanged situation. At the same time, outsourcers and other software development teams have no standardized, widely-adopted way to agree software quality metrics with contractors and purchasers of software. The Consortium for IT Software Quality (CISQ), a group of software developers and users led by Object Management Group (OMG) and the Software Engineering Institute (SEI), are developing such a standard to lower costs and increase quality broadly in the software world, driven by static code analysis, software modeling and shared patterns and anti-patterns of good practice. Dr. Soley will given an overview of the process and schedule for developing the standard, and the expected uses of of the standard when complete.

Integrating applications - and now Cloud services - is a major challenge for enterprise architects. Each of these components is designed to deliver a particular set of functionality, and probably does this very well. But different applications and services are designed separately and generally do not inter-operate with each other. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) has become established as an architectural style within which different components can inter-operate so that applications and external services can be integrated within an overall enterprise architecture. This presentation will describe the latest state-of-the-art of SOA, and explain how enterprise architects can use it to achieve interoperability, following best-practice methods developed by The Open Group based on the experience of its members.
Participants will learn:
- How SOA delivers interoperability;
- A standard reference architecture for SOA; and
- How to use the Open Group's standard architecture framework TOGAF to develop a service-oriented enterprise architecture.

From the earliest days of SOA, it has been widely recognized that good governance is crucial for successful deployment. It has also been recognized that SOA governance is difficult. In the first place, this was partly just because SOA was new. Secondly, it is also because SOA requires a different way of working to traditional architectural styles, with different roles and responsibilities. Thirdly, and perhaps most significantly, enterprises using SOA learn as they go, and change the way they do things as they learn, which means that their governance must be adaptable and flexible.
This presentation will describe the Open Group SOA Governance Framework. This is a standard governance framework developed by The Open Group using the experience of its member companies. It includes a standard SOA governance reference model, and a vitality method by which you can create a flexible and adaptive SOA governance regimen for your enterprise.
Participants will learn:
- The importance of SOA governance;
- The Open Group SOA Governance Reference Model; and
- How to develop an enterprise SOA governance regimen using the SOA Governance Vitality Method.

During the early part of this decade, SOA was the much touted architectural pattern which Enterprises attempted to embrace. This was purely looked at as an answer to integration complexity. While we have seen the hype to reality, SOA continues to remain integral (though low profile) to most of the architectures being defined today. Be it 'Middleware', 'BPM' or 'Cloud', industry has advanced in its hunt for new architectural patterns to address the challenges of today. Come, join us for this session to witness the realm in which SOA took birth and its relevance in today's consumer driven IT. We will address a range of challenges right from UI to DB and how architectures are being looked at in the real world.

There has never been a common understanding of what Service-Oriented Architecture was suppose to mean. From the business perspective, SOA was expected to modularize business functionality and application logic so that they can be shared and reused thereby making enterprise IT infrastructure radically more flexible. From the technical perspective, it was an architectural style whose goal is to achieve loose coupling among interacting software agents. But, where does SOA stand today? Which of these 2 views have become reality?
This talk will:
- Run through the history of SOA evolution. Touch upon the role of different agencies for creating the initial hype.
- Expand on how the first view of SOA has not lived up to its promise but how the second view of SOA has really become main-stream.
- Explore what has worked and what has not worked. Look into the possible reasons.
- Provide practical advice on dos and don'ts of SOA adoption.

Companies and Governments are adopting modern and highly dynamic technologies like cloud at a rapid pace. The speed of technology innovation seems to pick up. What does this development mean to the world of security and privacy though? Is this just a new development that we will adjust to over time or a true disruption requiring new and innovative security thought leadership? We find ourselves increasingly on the defensive - cyber criminals who are getting more sophisticated and targeted by the week and new technology services utilizing the cloud being quickly introduced into companies without giving security teams a chance to prepare for it. Is this really a technological challenge or rather a new cultural shift? It seems as if every successful gadget or consumer service is utilizing the cloud these days. But at the same time consumers and corporate customers alike are having higher expectations when it comes to the integrity and confidentiality of their data. Consumer trust is more and more an essential ingredient of a successful online business model. Trust without security is short lived though. Is it time to realize that "bolting" security onto existing technology no longer works in the cloud age and we need to innovate and develop new security technologies and mechanisms to keep up with technology innovation?

Cloud computing presents enterprises with major opportunities, not only for cost savings but, more importantly, to improve their service delivery, and to enter new markets with innovative service offerings. But it is not possible to do this just by waving a magic wand. How cloud should be used needs careful consideration. Will it replace existing IT, and, if so, how will the enterprise manage the transition? Will it be added to and complement in-house IT and, if so, how should they be integrated? It is the business of enterprise architects to resolve such questions. The Open Group has produced the industry standard framework, TOGAF, which is used by many enterprise architects to guide their decisions.
Participants will learn:
- The architectural considerations involved in using Cloud Computing within the enterprise, and
- The approaches that can be taken by enterprise architects to use Cloud effectively.
