Welcome Session and Overview |

1 |
Envisioning the Service-Oriented Enterprise |
| |
Cities emerge one building at a time, but with the right
planning codes the result can be more graceful and functional
than anything one architect could conceive alone. Are services
the Jerusalem stone of information technology, the façade that
unites old and new to the benefit of all? What will an
organizational technology portfolio look like in ten years
time? How will advances in technology transform business and
business processes? What are the key architectural patterns?
What are the new limits? What do you set in motion today to
anticipate the architecture of tomorrow? This session will
establish the overall architectural metaphor that will drive
this year’s Strategic Architect Forum. |

Solution Architecture for the Service-Oriented Enterprise |
| |
How
do we work from business requirements to running code when
stakeholders may span the organization? This session will offer
a “case-study” walk-through of architectural artifacts from use
cases to “code complete”. The session will consider how our
view of a “component” changes as services deliver more and more
of an application’s functionality, how services are factored and
orchestrated to effect business processes, and the use of
client-side intelligence in a services world. |

Technology Architecture for the Service-Oriented Enterprise |
| |
To
date, the realization of a service-oriented architecture has
been hampered by the prohibitive investment required to build
the message-processing infrastructure that provides common
services such as reliable messaging, authentication, monitoring,
and context-sensitive request routing. This session will detail
how Microsoft is implementing against standards and proposed
standards to deliver a trustworthy infrastructure for the
deployment and operation of service portfolios. |

Information Architecture for the
Service-Oriented Enterprise |
| |
How
do we model data in the new world order? What is its canonical
representation, and how does this relate to “standard” entity
schemas? How should we expose it, aggregate it, cache it,
transform it, and synchronize it? Looks at XML, SQL, WINFS, and
objects and offers guidance on which to use where. Addresses
data design for real-time business intelligence. |
