Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) for Architects
Course Length - 5 Days
Course Description
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) shows demonstrable signs of simplifying software integration. It can reduce the cost of integration significantly. Organizations are beginning to architect new integration solutions following the SOA approach.
This course delves deep into various architectural aspects of SOA. It starts with the Service Oriented Analysis and Design. This will help the architects understand how requirements are captured, business processes are modeled and services are identified. It moves on to data, transaction and messaging architecture.
You Will Learn How To:
Students will get to actually apply various principles in hands on exercises. This will make the concepts come alive.
After taking the course, an architect will gain enough knowledge to begin devising a comprehensive architecture for a new SOA based solution.
Course Prerequisites
Previous experience with software architecture is recommended. Some knowledge of Web Services and Object Oriented Analysis and Design is recommended.
Who Should Attend?
IT architects, senior developers.
