“The OASIS Composability within SOA Symposium will be an excellent opportunity to hear from thought leaders in the area of SOA and composite applications,” said Edward Cobb, Vice President, Emerging Technology & Standards, BEA Systems. “BEA is pleased to be a sponsor of this important event.”
Rogue Wave
“As companies move towards deploying SOA, there will be a growing demand for developers to find a way to leverage the agility and flexibility that the architecture offers. Since there is a software legacy issue in utilizing SOA, developers will be faced with either the 'rip and replace' option or a significant code rewrite,” said Patrick Leonard, VP, Engineering and Product Strategy at Rogue Wave. “We believe development teams should be able to modernize their existing applications without ever leaving the installed code base, and can solve this problem with our Hydra Product Suite.”
SAP
“Enterprise SOA helps customers and partners transform their IT environments into more responsive, efficient business networks that enable process innovation and new business models – creating value beyond the four walls of the enterprise,” said Michael Bechauf, vice president, Industry Standards, SAP. “As a sponsor of the OASIS Open Standards 2008 Symposium, we're looking forward to an event that brings developers, users and technology suppliers together to share experiences and innovative ideas for successfully utilizing SOA in their business.”
Software AG
“As a leader in SOA, Software AG is committed to supporting open standards that promote interoperability in heterogeneous IT environments,” said Franco Castaldini, Director of SOA Product Marketing. “Our commitment to open standards is exemplified by the market's leading community for SOA interoperability, the CentraSite Community, where our network of more than 50 partners ensures that open standards like UDDI, WS-I, BPEL, and JAXR are used to promote interoperability.”
Sun Microsystems
“The OASIS symposium is a great forum to discuss the current state of composability standards and implementations, including best practices and potential obstacles,” said Carl Cargill, Director of Corporate Standards, Sun Microsystems, Inc. “As a foundational member, Sun has been involved since the beginning in the development of SOA standards, participating in basic Web services technical committees. More recently, Sun has participated in the Open CSA Member Section and technical committees affiliated with it, including SCA-J TC, the SCA-Policy TC, and the SCA-Assembly TC, helping technology architects find ways to make composite applications work and implement successful SOA projects.”
