Suggestions and Requests / Chris Harding's TOGAF Workshop at SOA Conference i

« on: July 28, 2008, 04:37:30 pm »

Dr. Chris Harding is Forum Director for SOA and Semantic Interoperability at The Open Group. He has been with The Open Group for ten years and is currently responsible for managing and supporting its work on semantic interoperability and SOA. Before joining The Open Group, he was a consultant, and a designer and development manager of communications software. Chris is a certified TOGAF practitioner.Chris will conduct a workshop on 'Using TOGAF for SOA' at the SOA Conference at Business Technology Summit 2008, held in Bangalore from 22-24 September. This workshop will explore in depth how to develop a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) using The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF). SOA is the architecture style of choice for enterprises looking for agility in their IT systems. But it is not a "one size fits all" approach. It can be applied in different ways to meet the needs of different enterprises. To do this successfully, an architect must have knowledge, skill, and good judgement. TOGAF is an industry standard architecture framework that has been developed and continuously evolved since the mid-90’s by representatives of some of the world’s leading IT customer and vendor organizations, working in The Open Group's Architecture Forum. No framework can take the place of skill and judgement, but TOGAF gives an architect knowledge that has been accumulated by others working in many different architectural styles. Over the last two years, members of The Open Group have been working on how to apply TOGAF to SOA. Workshop participants will gain an understanding of SOA features and building blocks, of the TOGAF architecture development method, and of how to use TOGAF to create SOAs for their enterprises.
