| 09.00 - 11.20 | Opening Address Vic Morris, CEO, Vordel Service Oriented Architecture, Security and a Modern Shillelagh An SOA cannot be deployed without usage monitoring, traffic control, and protection from attack. XML Gateways provide this functionality, by allowing identity and security to be overlaid onto an SOA. In this way, crucial business services can be exposed in an SOA with confidence. This presentation explains how identity and security apply to SOA, allowing the benefits of SOA to be realized, without the pitfalls. Don Adams, CTO, TIBCO Top Ten Security Lessons Learned from implementation of SOA for a Large Enterprise Since 2004, Tom has been implementing a services oriented approach at Washington Mutual Bank as its SOA Security Architect. In that timeframe the company has successfully rolled out numerous internal/external services across its Credit Card, Commercial and Retail business units, enabling secure banking in and across each. In this session Tom will share with us some of the key insights and experiences gained by the business along the way and shed some light on the critical technologies involved. Tom Ray, SOA Security Architect, Washington Mutual Bank Security and Governance in Service Oriented Infrastructures BT Group will highlight its Research Service Oriented Infrastructures programme and provide examples of SOA solutions that facilitate secure end-to-end service integration within enterprises and across business partners. This is achieved by securely virtualising enterprise applications and resources, by securing their exposure to customers and by enforcing content- and context-sensitive policies about service presentation, end-to-end transactions, federated identity, usage and access control, intelligent routing and QoS obligations. Finally we will refer to external collaborations examples where these concepts are being trialled, including the BEinGRID research and innovation initiative that has 96 partners and coordinates 25 business pilots of Web Services and Grid technology in different business sectors.

| 13.30 - 14.30 | Lunch |
| 14.30 - 15.50 | Policy Driven SOA For SOA to reach its fullest potential, it is critical that the next generation SOA initiatives aim beyond reusability and interoperability, which, while not trivial, are nevertheless now being taken for granted. In such endeavors, policies become as critical as services themselves. As such, they need to be understood in the broadest context of the role they can play in mainstream business through the many stages of the application life-cycle, from planning to run-time and beyond. Such an approach will not only help in improving business-alignment of SOA, but also it enables the resulting systems to be self-diagnostic and self-corrective. In this session, Mark and Sreedhar present the case for moving towards such an infrastructure, after first explaining what policies are and how they are currently being used. Co presented by Mark O'Neill, CTO, Vordel and Sreedhar Kajeepeta, SVP and CTO, CSC Covansys Corporation Trends in the Data Centre and Managing the Challenges This session examines key data centre issues such as capacity challenges, deployment, costs ecalations and the regulatory impact of Green IT and will set out how the industry is confronting these challenges head on.
