Time: Monday 10:15 - 10:45

Abstract:

Despite their name, "standard business applications" are heavily changed and adapted by organisations. They continue to make great demands regarding model-driven and modular ways to execute and manage the adaption process. What are the advantages of developing standard applications based on services architecture, and how do users benefit in areas as the integration of external systems, business partners and third-party services? This lecture covers the concepts SAP applies around the SOA architecture. The following topics will be covered:

  • The vision and business drivers behind SOA
  • Why SOA is important for vendors and customers of business applications
  • How to change the mind set of large and established developer teams towards SOA
