Service Integration in Complex Systems: Lessons Learned and Watch Items

摘要

Service Oriented Architecture based projects rely on a diverse team of service providers, application providers, middleware provider, and an integrator. Often, the process for fusing the elements together to form a usable system of systems does not reflect the procedures that have evolved over the course of the program, due to the immense task of communication, due to timeline pressure, and often due to weak process enforcement. This talk will cover: *a series of pitfalls encountered on such large projects; *to show the audience how to avoid the pitfalls; *and what processes and tools should be considered when embarking on integration; *and what affect architecture decisions had on integration.
