Enterprise architects and developers aim to build secure, reliable, and high-performance solutions that incorporate mobile, social, analytics, and cloud functionality. However, when they attempt to incorporate these different capabilities, team members often encounter significant evaluation and integration hurdles.
In a one-day workshop, WSO2 technology executives will explore use cases of how IT professionals can reduce the time and effort required to craft a comprehensive solution by using the open source WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform.
The WSO2 workshop, ‘Exploring WSO2 Platform Use Cases: SOA & Integration, Governance, Identity and User Experience Discovery’ will be presented jointly by Paul Fremantle, WSO2 co-founder and CTO, and Chris Haddad, WSO2 Vice President of Technology Evangelism.
It will be held on Wednesday, 16 May, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Galle Face Hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka. For more information, visit: http://wso2.com/events/workshops/2012-may-colombo-exploring-wso2-platform-use-cases-workshop.
The workshop is designed for IT architects and developers seeking to optimise their IT strategies and projects. It will examine how customers are solving traditional IT challenges by combining WSO2 products, enabling project self-service, fostering partnerships, and delivering business-focused solutions. Workshop session topics will include:
n Why WSO2 clients are deploying WSO2 service-oriented architecture (SOA), integration, governance, identity, and user experience platforms.
n A discussion of how lightweight development environments based on APIs and JavaScript increase developer agility and participation.
n How to combine WSO2 Carbon products and create a purpose-fit runtime platform.
n Understanding when to deploy solution components across on-premise, external cloud services, or hybrid topologies.
n How to use WSO2’s forthcoming platforms for API management and application delivery management to reduce development costs and increase partner interactions.
