Rogue Wave to Speak at InfoWorld's SOA Executive Forum


BOULDER, CO--(Marketwire - November 7, 2007) - Rogue Wave Software, Inc., the leader in enterprise class C++ components and infrastructure, announced that Patrick Leonard, Vice President, Engineering and Product Strategy, will be a panel member at InfoWorld's ninth annual SOA Executive Forum on November 8th in New York City. The Special Technical Session, titled "Service Component Architecture," will examine the hot new standard in SOA and how to build a repeatable model for building SOA-based applications.

"Dynamic enterprises are faced with issues such as how to achieve price/performance improvements by taking advantage of multi-core hardware and thus finding the right concurrency solution," said Leonard, one of the leading creators of SCA products and an active member of the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) (link to http://www.oasis-open.org/home/index.php), the focal point for development of the SCA specification. "Rewriting code for business applications can be extremely costly, time consuming and risky. Finding a repeatable model is fundamental to service enablement. But that's easier said than done, and enterprises will need to address this challenging issue more and more in the future."

Leonard will be presenting alongside other leaders in SCA including: David Chappell, VP & Chief Technologist, SOA, Oracle and Michael Rowley, Director of Technology, BEA Systems. Rogue Wave's HydraSCA is the first commercially available run-time that supports the SCA specification, enabling a repeatable model for service enablement in high-performance application environments.

InfoWorld's ninth SOA Executive Forum provides fresh insight into best practices to build Service Oriented Architectures that scale to meet the needs of dynamic enterprises. Interactive sessions will illuminate key planning and implementation issues, while real-world case studies reveal proven solutions for technology and governance challenges. A new tutorial track taught by leading practitioners will help attendees craft a successful SOA strategy that fulfills the unique requirements of their organizations now and in the future.
