Infrastructure Governance: Frank Kennedy

Here is the presentation on the CD. Need to get the new presentation

SOA common from so many places

Significant number of services will come from the business application guys: SAP, Oracle and Microsoft

They have fully service oriented the latest stuff - how do you govern these

Innovations in architecture
Role of an Integration Competency
Which vendors - fast moving market - latest vendor space

Recommends using the framework on page 3 for governance view

Registry is the lynchpins for knowing and understanding your assets - Registry create references to your stuff

Who is using the service, etc.

SOA Policy Management - Policy Creation - need a way to create this and then enforcement from there

RACI Table for SOA Governance - need to look at this; map out internal teama and see where are the gaps

Everybody has some of the technology suite

Mindreef provide testing and validation space for the first time - QA becomes - vendord who do it all

IBM and Mercury in this space

Who was missing: WebLayers - show us the web layers slide

Systinet and Mercury was Switzerland - not sure if the value is still there in HP !!!

Big time statement

Microsoft will have the SOA Framework is in the OS

IBM has done a good job rationalizing their product

Conclusion: Need to follow up on the HP statement; not sure what he means but it was a warning shot. Lack of web layers mention was important.
