Description:

Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is providing value: 60% of those doing SOA are expanding its use. On the other hand, about 20% of SOA users say they are struggling for benefit, and they won't expand use of SOA until they resolve the issues. Furthermore, up to two-thirds of those who are expanding SOA say they also struggle to achieve benefits. What does all this mean? It means that SOA is important but not easy. Enter SOA governance. By guiding your teams and building organizational competence, practices like service portfolio management, SOA platform planning, and SOA centers of excellence increase your success with SOA. In this session, Forrester outlines 12 key SOA governance practices, zeros in on the most valuable practices, and shows you how SOA governance correlates with higher SOA satisfaction.

Agenda:

• Many are successful with SOA, yet many still struggle.
• Twelve common SOA governance practices keep SOA on track.
• SOA users name five SOA governance practices as most valuable.
• SOA centers of excellence focus more on governance than training.
