Events

Making SOA Happen: Process, Tools and Politics Defined
Application development is undergoing a phenomenal shift and IT development managers are taking a closer look at Service-Oriented Architectures for new solutions to their challenges. Learn more about SOA through the eyes of expert pratictioners in this one-hour webcast, facilitated by ADT Magazine.

Join experts Mike Rosen, CTO of M2VP, Inc., Mike Sawicki, Compuware OptimalJ product manager, and Jack Vaughan, Editor-at-Large for ADT Magazine, as they address how MDA relates to SOA, how SOA will drive new design paradigms, and how teams should prepare and organize for success with Service-Oriented Architectures. To access this archived webcast, please click here.

The Power of Patterns
The reality of application development is that it is quite tedious to manually implement design patterns in a large application -  maybe not on your first TransferObject, but definitely by the time you hit your fiftieth. A better way to harness the power of patterns is to describe your intended technical architecture in the form of a pattern framework, then have it automatically applied to the problem domain at hand. Over the last couple of years, Compuware has been helping to formalize a development approach that does just that. They call this approach model-driven, pattern-based (MDPB) development.

This session, held at the ServerSide Symposium in May, features Mike Burba, Product Manager of Compuware's OptimalJ. Burba describes how this technique is used to build J2EE applications. To access the archive of this event, click here
