This is a one-hour presentation.
- How business rules interact with and support BMP, EAI, and SOA in your enterprise
- How different mixes of these technologies provide flexibility and resiliency in your architecture
- The key attributes of your business that you need to know in order to best use these technologies together
Highlights:
SOA and Business Rules - Building a Powerful, Flexible Application Platform
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA ) is a powerful paradigm for developing new applications and integrating new service-level features into existing applications. As the popularity and maturity of SOA grows, organizations are looking at how they can best leverage Business Rules Engines (BRE) in these new architectures. This session will provide a quick review of SOA then dive into the value proposition of BREs in SOA , traditional and non-traditional uses of BREs in SOA , and finally a review of different approaches to integrating a BRE into your SOA with benefits and challenges of each. This is a half-day tutorial session.
