Today's Enterprise Architects are not only focused on their SOA challenges and successes, but on optimizing technology to meet and exceed business requirements. At BEA's invitation-only sixth annual Arch2Arch Summit, you can connect with an exclusive group of forward-thinking enterprise architects who share your search for the new technologies and architectural strategies that will enable them to achieve this goal.

SOA is a reality—and so are other technologies that weren't even on the radar just a few years ago: BPM, Virtualization, Governance, and Web 2.0. At this year's Summit you will not only get BEA's perspective on what today's Enterprise Architecture looks like, but you will hear how fellow BEA customers are "walking the talk."

Attend this two-day event and discover what your peers have to say about:

• What better business and IT alignment really means
• Governance strategies—do both SOA and BPM fit in?
• The importance of flexible and agile IT infrastructure
• How social computing fits into an enterprise architecture strategy
• Enterprise-wide SOA deployments and their challenges
• Practical virtualization
• Enterprise modeling and services architectures

BEA's technology information and industry-leading best practices will help you take your Enterprise Architecture to the next level. You'll also have ample opportunity to network with fellow BEA customers, technologists, and industry leaders.

The BEA Arch2Arch Summit agenda includes:

• Keynotes from BEA Thought Leaders
• Customer stories from some of the world's most progressive IT organizations
• BEA product roadmap reviews
• Panel discussions in which BEA customers explore the keys to a successful SOA
• Peer-to-peer networking opportunities including whiteboarding sessions
