New York, NY | June 22 - 23, 2009
At SOAWorld 2009, Jesus Rodriguez presented the session:
From SOA to WOA: Introducing Web Oriented Architectures:
Despite being one of the latest acronyms in the never ending distributed programming dictionary, Web Oriented Architectures (WOA) represents one of the most important architecture styles in service orientation. In a nutshell, WOA incorporates the principles of the Web and Representational State Transfer (REST) into Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) to achieve high levels of performance, availability and scalability. This session explores the fundamental principles and patterns of Web Oriented Architectures (WOA) and how they can enhance the way we build SOA solutions today. Specifically, we will demonstrate how REST enables a new set of patterns around key SOA principles such as service composition, message brokering, routing, publish-subscribe messaging, load distribution and long running transactions. Finally, we will compare and contrast WOA with the traditional patterns we use to build services today in order to help architects and developers to select the right architecture style for the right scenario.
