Course Abstract:	Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a popular and innovative approach to Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). It is process-centric, leveraging Business Process Management (BPM) techniques, and inundated with standards and strategies, necessitating formal governance. With so many facets to SOA, and the break-neck pace of the industry, it is no wonder that organizations are in need of solid best practices guidance. This course addresses best practices, design patterns, and recommendations tailored to the technical side of SOA. The course offers practical knowledge regarding the right and wrong way to adopt SOA within an organization. Teams that are relatively new to SOA will learn valuable knowledge and skills regarding how to implement SOA right the first time. Experienced SOA teams will extend their understanding of SOA and gain insight into advanced concepts and strategies.
Audience:	This course is designed for SOA technical leaders within the company. We can customize this course with your company's best practices and roll out the course to a wider audience.
Duration:	3 days
Learning Outcomes:	Upon completion of this course, the participant will be able to: > Recognize the state of SOA, SOA standards, tool support, and vendor support. > Describe the various layers within SOA, their relative importance, and how to best leverage these layers within the enterprise. > Identity the various governance models, the pros and cons, and how to select the best governance model for an organization. > Apply their knowledge of various service/process identification strategies, including bottom-up, top-down, and goal-oriented modeling. > Identify the risks inherent within the SOA lifecycle and the best practices for mitigating these risks. > Articulate the value of BPM and process modeling and how to avoid common process pitfalls. > Identify bottlenecks and selectively optimize an existing SOA deployment. > Describe the challenges and solutions associated with SOA configuration management (versioning) and comprehensive service and process testing. > Describe process/service granularity issues and how to strike the right balance. > On a day to day basis, recognize SOA technology anti-patterns and steer individuals and teams toward successful patterns and best practices.
