WSO2 to Present Technical Webinar on Building and Deploying SaaS Applications with the WSO2 Application Server as a Service

WSO2 Webinar on July 26, Will Explore How to Build, Host and Secure SaaS Applications With Full SOA Functionality Palo Alto, CA – July 19, 2012 – Increasingly, enterprises are recognizing software-as-a-service (SaaS) as a cost-efficient way to deliver applications. However, the success of a SaaS implementation depends on the platform-as-a-service (PaaS) on which it runs. Today, only a few PaaS offerings provide the middleware services required to develop and integrate complex service-oriented architecture (SOA) applications in the cloud. To address this challenge, WSO2 will conduct a free webinar on how IT architects and developers can take advantage of the WSO2 Application Server as a Service to optimize SaaS applications.
Building and Deploying SaaS Applications The webinar will begin with a brief introduction to the capabilities of the WSO2 Application Server as a Service, which is part of the WSO2 Stratos cloud middleware platform that provides cloud-native features, such as self-provisioning, multi-tenancy, elasticity and metering. The session then will examine how to successfully create a tenant, and have it up and running with full SOA functionality. The webinar also will demonstrate how to build a Web application using WSO2 Developer Studio and then host it in the WSO2 Application Server as a Service. Finally, the session will review how to secure and expose Web applications as SaaS. The webinar will be presented by Kishanthan Thangarajah, WSO2 software engineer and a member of the WSO2 development technologies team, who focuses on the WSO2 Application Server and WSO2 Application Server as a Service. He is an active Apache Axis2 project contributor and also has contributed to the Elgg open source social networking engine. About WSO2 WSO2 is the lean enterprise middleware company.
