Process Integration

The epitome of any integration solution is its evolution to support process-based integration. Come learn about the range of solutions offered in this space including business process management, workflow capability, complex messaging, orchestrated communications and B2B.

Web Services Solutions: Data & Application Integration

At the core of any integration solution is the ability to access existing data and applications. The variety of systems that are currently deployed requiring external integration is nearly inconceivable. Discover the latest Web Services and Java techniques being employed to seamlessly and transparently gain access to these systems. EAI, Liquid Data, XQuery, data transformation, J2CA, data controls are all key solutions addressed here.

Integrated Portals

Discover how enterprises address the need to expose information, applications, and business processes to a variety of constituents through multiple communication channels. CRM, personalization, process & information portals, Net UI design & implementation, converging mobility, content management and user management are the key aspects discussed in this track.

Integrated Development Strategies

Developers deliver upon the promise of any development solution. The key to any successful implementation is the proper armament of developers with the right solutions and tools to accurately and effectively develop and deploy. With the explosion of enterprise runtimes has come a variety of approaches to rapid and large team development. Come see how BEA is innovating the enterprise development environment. This track will highlight BEA's next generation WebLogic Workshop engine, provide strategies for consolidated and integrated tool development, discuss configuration management techniques and highlight the embedded development capabilities that are core to the BEA platform.

Performance, Scalability & Security

This track will explore all aspects relating to making systems operate securely and reliably in a 24x7 scenario. The presentations, which are mainly targeted at high-end developers, architects and serious enterprise professionals, will examine clustering architectures, optimization techniques, geographically disperse architectures and creating massively available systems. Come and discover how extreme scalability can be achieved across the entire enterprise without losing a degree of control.

Application Servers

At the heart of any enterprise solution is the application server farm. Now a proven methodology and runtime engine, this track will focus on the latest capabilities of WebLogic Server and Tuxedo. Expect to hear about BEA's tight interoperability between runtime engines, security frameworks, flexible administration, industry-leading J2EE & Web Services implementations, performance enhancements and development simplicity.

Standards: Web Services & J2EE

Learn about BEA's implementation of technology standards and how industry standards play a key role in the architecture and development of applications. Session in this track will cover J2EE specifications and implementation while investigating the latest in Web Services.

Deployment, Management & Administration

Developing a solution is only half of the challenge. Getting an application into production, maintaining its health and leveraging the highest possible ROI are also key challenges. As the number of enterprise deployments increase year over year, the complexity of management and administration grows equally. This track focuses on how to build manageability into a system, intelligent administration, creating extensible configuration and monitoring consoles, system administration issues and portal management.

Extending the BEA Platform

A platform is only as successful as the ecosystem surrounding it. See how BEA is incorporating extensibility into every aspect of the platform. This track will highlight techniques for embedding the BEA platform and extending it through reusable components such as licensable controls, JSP taglib extensions, EJBs, portlet solutions and reusable integration adapters.
