SOAs are simply the next generation of composite web applications, which CA Wily has been managing for over 9 years. They do have specific management challenges, but these must be considered in the context of the whole web application infrastructure through which Web services transactions flow.
Master Data Management and SOA— This session will let you discover what Master Data Management is all about and how it can be concretely implemented. You will understand the added value of Master Data Management in a Service oriented Architecture.
