| The Long Tail of IT by kvandersluis | Comment (0) |
In these days of recession and shrinking IT budgets, development groups are forced to do more with less. This appears to be an opportunity for growth for Open Source projects, as companies find it difficult to purchase products, or even expand use of products they currently own. Open source products are available to assist in impleme

| Complex Event Processing by kvandersluis | Comment (0) |
At SOAWorld in San Jose last week, I attended a session by Michael Rowley of Active Endpoints, covering Complex Event Processing (CEP), another TLA (three letter acronym) that is getting some press these days. This was my first real exposure to CEP, so I’d like to briefly share my thoughts on it for others not familiar with it.

I have been spending way too much time lately studying the stock market, and I am sure that I am not alone. After a debate with a friend about the possible future market directions, I put this chart together to show what is possible - if maybe unlikely.

| SOA and RIA by kvandersluis | Comment (0) |
Last week I presented a session at AJAXWorld 2008 in San Jose, titled “Hands On Data Services for RIA, WOA, and SOA”. While the “hands on” part was a demonstration of the XAware technology, where I showed building a data mashup from text data logically linked to a database, the first half of the presentation was a discussion abo

I attended AJAXWorld 2008 in San Jose last week, where I sat in many sessions and also presented a session myself. It was a good and interesting show, focused mainly on Rich Internet Application (RIA) development technologies. While my day job usually has me dealing with back-end server, data integration, and data services issues, it

| Data Services Article from SOA World by billm | Comment (0) |
Good article in SOA World from David Besemer of Composite Software, but of course you don't need proprietary and expensive Composite Software to do this when there is an excellent open source alternative.

| Service Contract Design Strategies by kvandersluis | Comment (0) |
A key design principle for a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is the definition of a service contract. The contract clearly specifies the technical interface a client uses to invoke each service operation, as well as the expected behavior of the service. The contract is independent of the underlying implementation, so users of the
