What's on my SOA Time Table...

The IBM SOA FOUNDATION is an integrated, open standards based set of

• Best Practices
• Patterns & SOA Scenarios
• IBM Software for SOA

to provide you with the architecture knowledge to get started with SOA.
The results of SOA Best Practices are:

• The SOA Life Cycle
• The SOA Reference Architecture
• The SOA Programming Model

The different Scenarios are as follows:

1 Service Creation
2 Service Connectivity
3 SOA Design
4 Process Scenario
5 BPM Scenario
6 Information as a Service
7 Interaction & Collaboration
8 SOA Security
9 SOA Governance

I have started to demonstrate abilities to choose the right mix of Best Practises, Software and Scenarios to implement a SOA for any Enterprise. I need to refine my knowledge a lot more and hopefully the above contents will help me stay focussed and progress in the right direction to elevate my implementation skills.

Good Luc to all those whose share the same Vision as I do! :)
