Presentation
Lessons Learned in Integrating Existing Systems into a Service Oriented Architecture
The term Service Oriented Architecture suggests a green field approach to constructing an architectural solution to a large enterprise system or set of systems.  The reality is that we almost never have the opportunity to start afresh.  This session will offer a set of techniques, based on actual project experience, for putting an SOA in place and integrating existing systems.  It will also cover things the presenter wishes he **hadn't done** or that he'd **known before he started** the project.  The approaches and techniques are not dependent on particular technologies so much as they are ways to understand the problem space and architect solutions that allow a functional SOA implementation to be done.  Topics will cover:

  • things you need to know about existing systems
  • service granularity - approaches to getting it right
  • performance considerations
  • security considerations
