SOA & API Convergence Strategy and Tactics - Wednesday, May 21, 2014

APIs encourage connected business interactions that lead to increased revenue growth, faster time to market, and increased customer engagement. When attempting to reconcile agile API tactics with enterprise SOA guidelines, teams tune governance practices and integrate API development with back-end service life-cycles.

In this session, Chris Haddad VP - Platform Evangelism at WSO2 will describe:

• Why SOA services and RESTful APIs are complementary
• What architecture patterns and governance techniques align API and service development lifecycles
• How to converge SOA and API strategies and implement tactics that accelerate connected business projects
