We are delighted to invite you to an interactive Webinar called "The Architecture You Have Always Dreamt Of". Over the years we have seen many systems architecture approaches come and go as we have worked hard in IT to keep up with the pace of business change. While Agile delivery methods have helped enormously on a project-by-project basis, enterprise system portfolios remain notoriously resistant to change.

For almost two decades the enterprise architecture we have dreamt of has been sitting in plain sight. The Web has become the foremost example of a scalable, resilient, and loosely-coupled system of systems, which are precisely the characteristics we want in enterprise solutions.

Topics Covered

In this briefing, Dr Jim Webber, ThoughtWorks' agitator behind Guerrilla SOA, will show how the Web wins out by:

• Explaining that enterprise architecture today is mortally wounded by profoundly inappropriate technology choices, which bow to vendor pressure over business imperatives.
• Showing that the Web has all of the "ilities" that we demand from enterprise-grade systems, but captured as patterns rather than middleware.
• Introducing case studies from recent projects which demonstrate both cost savings and ROI from using Web-inspired architectures over traditional enterprise middleware.
