Resource-Oriented Architectures : Semantic SOA
The sixth in a series of talks that are part of an arc covering next-generation information-oriented, flexible, scalable architectures. The ideas presented apply to both external and internal-facing systems.
This talk will wrap up the vision presented in the other sessions into an integrated service oriented architecture that yields results on the promises we were given a decade ago, even if we have to consider alternate technologies to get there.
We will walk through the adoption of new REST services, wrapping legacy systems, describing these services with metadata, documenting them, discovering them and binding to them in run time orchestrations.
Attendees should be familiar with the topics presented in the first four talks before attending this fifth one, although we will try to make it accessible on its face value.
