Presentation
The Sky is the Limit - SOA Built on a Solid Foundation

Learn how Con-way, Inc., a $ 4.2 billion freight transportation and logistics company, established a strong architectural foundation that is enabling each evolutionary step of SOA, EDA and BPM, to help the business to remain competitive in a changing and consolidating market, address new business opportunities and meet customer demands. Con-way, an early adopter of SOA, navigated technical and organizational challenges to establish a systematic approach to create and identify business services. In this session, find out why continuous attention to the "A" in SOA implementation is critical if it is to serve as a basis for event-driven processing, automated business processes, real-time business intelligence and other future IT opportunities. Learn how the business has already benefited, what steps were taken to ensure success and what lessons were learned along the way.
