The Most Significant SOA and Open Source Events of 2007!

Open Source Middleware: Not Middle of the Road
Open Source Middleware: Not Middle of the Road

Open Source continues to capture market share in the enterprise. But can it last? If recent published articles are to be believed, the answer  is no.  According to a June 2005 Forbes article, only one company has the riddle solved and companies like IBM and Microsoft, with much to lose if the world  goes "open," can reverse any advances on the turn of a dime. Is this view  correct and, if so, what needs to be done to ensure it doesn't become a  reality?  
 
 The answer lies with two crucial pieces the so called "middle of  the stack solutions" and applications.  Advances in clustering solutions, databases and other "plumbing" are being made that will offset the fear, uncertainty and despair campaigns of proprietary loyalists and fuel the  potential of an open source expansion that will reinvent the entire enterprise. By adding highly reliable applications that live up to  expectations and deliver availability, scalability and business value that is  taken for granted in the proprietary world, the rush of customers to open source will continue.
 
 Among the questions this session will ask and answer: 1) Can the applications deliver? 2) Is the infrastructure there to support it? 3) Will players like IBM and  Microsoft swoop in to derail upstart players? and 4) Will this equation solve  the financial questions or is it just a Band-Aid?
