ArcSig meeting 08/18/2009 - 6:30 PM Ft. Lauderdale at Microsoft
All (!) seats were taken after free pizza and refreshing soft drinks. 43 Users came to our August meeting to hear Jesus Rodriguez's excellent presentation "From SOA to WOA". Despite being one of the latest acronyms in the never ending distributed programming dictionary, Web Oriented Architectures (WOA) represents one of the most important architecture styles in service orientation. In a nutshell, WOA incorporates the principles of the Web and Representational State Transfer (REST) into Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) to achieve high levels of performance, availability and scalability.
Jesus Rodriguez is the Chief Architect of Tellago, Inc. He is also a Microsoft BizTalk Server MVP, an Oracle ACE and one of a few Architects worldwide to be a member of the Microsoft Connected Systems Advisor team. As a member, Jesus has been selected to participate in a variety of Software Design Reviews with Microsoft's Product Teams including Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Workflow Foundation and BizTalk Server.
Jesus is a prolific blogger on all subjects related to integration and has a true passion for technology. You can gain valuable insight on leading edge technologies through his blog at http://weblogs.asp.net/gsusx.
After the presentation we "raffled" a substantial amount of Microsoft Books to the participants and had time for a Q&A session and some great discussions and socializing.
Thank you very much Jesus for your presentation, and Jeff for hosting!
