Presentation: "Understanding the Grey Area Between Service and Object-Oriented Design"

Track:   Service-Oriented Architectures, SOA

Time: Monday 11:00 - 12:00

Location: Conference Hall 1

Abstract:

This session has to be classified somewhere in-between a traditional architecture and developer session: It covers the grey area between the object oriented implementation of a service and the exposure of its functionality to consumers. It's tremendously important to understand the different artifacts of a service interface and how to map them to the underlying object oriented implementation. We discuss the challenges of exposing objects as part of a stable service interface, talk about the impact of service autonomy, the definition of a "well formed" contract as well as service versioning.

Although it's architecture; expect to see code, XML and WSDL
