“The SOA Partner Community Forum was a first-rate event that provided a balanced agenda of vendor-specific and vendor-neutral content pertaining to modern-day service-oriented computing technologies and practices. I enjoyed the opportunity to provide an objective voice on the topics I consider most important for today’s IT practitioners to fully leverage the many patterns, principles, and service technology innovations that comprise the next-generation SOA platform.” Thomas Erl, SOA Systems Inc., SOASchool.com
The Community is an excellent forum for Partners to hear about each others success stories on SOA, especially BPEL and ODI Jørn F. Schurink, Competence Expert Oracle Technologies Logica

Book launch
One of the highlights of the conference was the book launch “Modern SOA Infrastructure: Technology, Design, and Governance” written by David Chappell, Thomas Erl, Mark Little, Brian Loesgen, Satadru Roy, Thomas Rischbeck, Arnaud Simon
SOA Manifesto
The highlight of the conference was the SOA Manifesto presentation. From Oracle David Chappel and Clemens Utschig-Utschig contributed to the SOA Manifesto. Right after the launch we had the opportunity to talk to several of the authors who shared some insights with us.
If you like what you see, you are encouraged to become a signatory.
The simplicity and clear language in the manifesto was hard work. During the conference the team meet over 3 days. Key of SOA are the business benefits. The challenge was to reduce the more than 40 ideas for the SOA values to the final 6 values. In the second part of the SOA Manifesto focus on the guiding principles.
One of the key ideas was that you can not buy SOA, it is a result of hard architecture work. The goals of the manifesto are highly ambitions, high volume of website hits and the use in SOA RFIs.
The SOA community discussion acknowledges that the SOA Manifesto supports the SOA efforts and success. For more feedback on the SOA Manifesto please visit the following blogs of David Chappel, Clemens Utschig-Utschig, Hajo Normann & Mike van Alst.
THANKS for the great event! Jürgen Kress

Thomas Erl and a team of our partners is working on a book about “Next generation SOA”. The book will be launched during the SOA Symposium 2009 in Rotterdam. Oracle is platinum sponsor of the event. Therefore you can get conference ticket discount and visit our booth. Our SOA Partners will present their real world SOA experience and reference cases as part of the SOA Partner Community.
Next Generation SOA
We are at a stage in the evolution of service-oriented computing where modern service technology innovation is building upon mature service platforms at the same time that proven delivery techniques and design patterns are building upon the established service-orientation design paradigm. These developments have made it possible to build service-oriented solutions of unprecedented sophistication and to take the realization of service-orientation to new levels. At the same time, there are new risks, complexities, and pitfalls that need to be understood in order to make the most of what the current SOA industry has to offer. This new book explains Next Generation SOA in plain English and is suitable for any IT professional interested in learning about where modern-day SOA is at today and where it is heading.
Authors (in alphabetical order): Pethuru Cheliah, Thomas Erl, Berthold Maier, Vijay Narayanan, Hajo Normann, Bernd Trops, Clemens Utschig-Utschig, Torsten Winterberg
