The Practical Approach to SOA


Web Seminar | Date: 26 April 2007 | Start time: 10.00am | Concludes: 10.45am |
Book Your Place

Business is changing at an ever-increasing rate. To keep pace, you need to rapidly adapt your manufacturing processes to new imperatives and opportunities, without impacting ongoing operations. However, updating ERP functionality with associated coding changes can be highly complex, made ever-more challenging with the shift to overseas operations.

Establishing competitive advantage requires innovative strategies that resolve the gap between business needs and IT reality. You must also ensure enterprise applications are not only high-performance business engines driving efficiencies, but also flexible building blocks of future business systems, that adapt rapidly to evolving business needs. Service oriented-architecture (SOA) can empower your organisation to adapt to business change and leverage your existing systems. SAP is leading the SOA charge with its SAP NetWeaver platform that marks a clear shift away from continual ‘rip & replace’ to deliver a future where the old and the new can be weaved together in a true leave & layer strategy.

The web event's programme includes:

Introduction by Simon Pollard, Discrete Manufacturing Industrial Principal, EMEA NEWS, SAP AG.

What is Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)’...and what can it mean to you?
Dr. Khalid Mansour, CIBER US, Vice President & Global Practice Leader, Enterprise Integration

Our Keynote speaker, Dr. Khalid Mansour will explain the new architecture, allow you to understand its impact and explore the benefits available to you. Khalid will share his thoughts on how this method can help you align your IT systems with your business goals, with focus placed on how the business becomes empowered to determine what goals are important, and align IT accordingly. The presentation will focus on two key themes - coping with business change and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

Demonstration – Design, Develop and Deploy customised applications
Simon Williams, Product Manager, CIBER UK

Enterprise Services Architecture (ESA) - SAP's brand name for it’s own SOA platform is realised with SAP NetWeaver®. This presentation will provide a demonstration of the SAP NetWeaver® platform, the core concept of building business processes along IT practices, and highlight the new SAP NetWeaver® Visual Composer tool, that allows you to create flexible business applications quickly and cost-effectively - without having to write a single line of code.

  • Create efficient, customised and streamlined business processes
  • Accelerate the application development process
  • Reuse existing applications and create content using a modelling process and a visual user interface instead of manual coding
  • Combine the transactional and analytical worlds into one integrated experience within the business process
  • How this will make the ‘business systems experience’ easier, more acceptable to the people that actually do the job and more adaptable to inevitable business change
