BALTIMORE, MD, July 29, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- One of the biggest challenges facing the SOA marketplace is the lack of proper governance to make sure that SOA exists in a controlled environment, and not the potential chaos that can emerge from uncontrolled, dynamic consumption and composition. To address this challenge, ZapThink today announces the availability of registration for its Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Governance Training and Certification course in London, UK. The two-day courses will be run in Canary Wharf in London, United Kingdom running from October 19-20, 2009.
"Enterprises are struggling with making SOA work and troubled by governance concerns," said Ronald Schmelzer, Managing Partner with ZapThink, LLC. "They are looking for SOA governance best practices for design-time, run-time, and change / version management, and want hands-on experience with SOA governance methods, tools, and frameworks before you commit to a SOA endeavor. However, existing SOA Governance training is provided by software vendors and consulting firms that have ulterior motives for providing training. Enterprises are you looking for a third-party, vendor-neutral credential to provide training and endorse their SOA governance knowledge."
The courses address a significant and urgent need from enterprise architects and IT practitioners to achieve SOA success by governing the design, operation, running, and versioning of their SOA implementations. In ZapThink's two-day workshop, attendees will learn in-depth, practical SOA governance methodologies, techniques, and approaches in ways that are not specific to the particular technology du-jour or an individual vendor implementation. The SOA Governance training and certification course is led by skilled instructors who not only have architectural and governance expertise, but also know-how in how to apply SOA governance technologies and frameworks into practice. For attendees that already have an LZA credential, this course adds a SOA Governance endorsement that will further add to their knowledge and capabilities. The SOA governance course fills the unmet need for both SOA governance training as well as certification.
Details of the upcoming SOA Governance Training and Certification workshop in London:
* October 19-20, 2009: London, UK
Cost for attendance is just $995 at early discount rates and includes all training materials and certification costs. For more information and to register for the upcoming SOA Governance training and certification event in London, visit http://www.regonline.com/soagovlondon09.
