Join us for this complimentary seminar in February 2007!

Many organizations are turning to SOA as the means to gain a competitive edge in a marketplace that is defined by a breathtaking pace of change. That's a smart move. But the smarter move is an SOA initiative that includes effective governance measures to ensure that the push for greater agility stays on track to deliver value early, and continues to deliver value as the program expands.

Effective SOA governance—an extension of IT governance—encompasses the people, processes, and technologies involved in the transformation to, and evolution of, SOA. Get it right and you'll stay one step ahead of the future.

AmberPoint and BEA Systems invite you to learn how to maximize the value of your IT investments by applying governance to SOA and throughout the supporting lifecycle. Learn about the best practices that have helped businesses effectively organize for SOA, achieve reuse, and deliver business value.
