Once
upon a time data modeling played a central role in the process of developing
applications. Thus far in the SOA era, there has been a heavy emphasis on
process, and data has all-too-often been lost in the SOA shuffle. In this talk,
we present a data model for SOA - i.e., a service-oriented data model. This
model formalizes the notion of a data service, modeling data in SOA as a layer
of interrelated data services. We explain the key components of this model,
including a taxonomy of data service operation types, a mechanism for capturing
the entities that the data services are "about", and an approach to
modeling relationships in SOA. The content of this talk is based on the data
services model embodied in the BEA AquaLogic Data Services Platform (ALDSP),
and the approach is based on lessons learned over a period of several years of
working with data services and customer use cases.

DataServices World at SOAWorld 2008 (June 24, 2008)
DataServices World (June 24, 2008) is about the
confluence of databases, data warehousing, business intelligence,
enterprise computing and Internet computing. Its focus is architectures
and technologies for accessing data from heterogenous data sources and
providing that data to consumers such as components, services and
applications.
At DataServices World, chaired by Ken North, we'll uncover architecture
and technology solutions for accessing, integrating and processing data
from multiple sources while guaranteeing security and scalability.
These solutions include robust, high-performance data access
middleware, optimized databases, efficient protocol handling, tuned
queries and state of the art data services. We'll be looking at
technology of interest to CTOs, enterprise architects, system
architects, information architects, developers, database gurus,
consultants and analysts. Register Early and Save!
SOAWorld Conference & Expo 2008
East
June 23-24, 2008 at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City
SOA
World Conference & Expo 2008 East brings together the best minds in
the business for a two-day conference that offers comprehensive coverage of SOA
and what it means to enterprise IT today.
Service-oriented
architectures have evolved over the past few years out of the original vision
of loosely coupled Web services replacing constrained, stovepiped applications
throughout enterprise IT. Every major enterprise technology vendor today has
developed its own SOA strategy, supported by innumerable mid-size companies and
start-ups offering specific SOA aspects or entire solutions.
Service-oriented
architectures (SOAs) have evolved over the past few years out of the original
vision of loosely coupled web services replacing constrained, stovepiped
applications throughout enterprise IT. Every major enterprise technology vendor
today has developed its own SOA strategy, supported by innumerable mid-size
companies and start-ups offering specific SOA aspects or entire solutions. This
explosive growth in SOA technology is in response to a global demand--IDC
estimates that spending on SOA services alone will grow from $8.6 billion to
more than $33 billion by 2010.
