Presentation abstract: Griffiths Waite (GW) have implemented a number of SOA solutions for an array of clients, with projects ranging from simple integration and automation of processes to complex business transformation. Oracle SOA Suite is a comprehensive set of tools that enables and accelerates the construction of these solutions. With the addition of Oracle BPA there is a very powerful toolkit for designing and building the next generation of IT applications.

Through each SOA project GW has harvested patterns and lessons learned to build up large knowledge base in Oracle SOA.

In this session Richard will highlight some of the fundamental lessons learnt through these projects, helping give some pointers of how to start building enterprise projects with Oracle BPA and Oracle SOA and share some of the pitfalls to be avoided in constructing SOA solutions using technologies such as BPEL and Business Rules.
