I’m doing a pre-conference workshop on Sunday night, and a talk on Wednesday morning. Long week in Nashville, and I hope productive. Some of the key things I’ll be looking for when at the conference include: Signs of synergy between the whole world of Enterprise Architecture and SOA…what are the common threads that are emerging? New ways of thinking about integration in light of the oncoming SOA wave. Any new leadership around the SOA space, versus the loud noises that are around today. I typically don’t attend, nor speak at Gartner events. This event was the exception, seemed very interesting to me. Also, gives me a chance to meet more SOA practitioners…I love SOA practitioners. I’ll blog as much as I can from the event. You know me, no free WiFi and I’m packing up and heading to the closest Panera. Software Development
