     MAIN TOPIC:

         SOA Futures: Growing your EA Skills and the Long Tail
    (Advance your SOA Career + Transition your Organization to SOA Technologies)
    In this talk, Ronald Schmelzer will discuss how to advance both the state of SOA adoption
    and your SOA careers by focusing on where the rubber meets the road: providing effective,
    efficient, and agile response to business needs without introducing high costs, unpredictable
    infrastructure, or organizational chaos. Using material from ZapThink's latest Licensed ZapThink
    Architect (LZA) training boot camp, Ron will walk attendees through some of the latest
    best practices on SOA adoption and explain how you can further your business goals and career
    by doing SOA well.
    Speakers -- ZapThink (www.ZapThink.com):
       -     Ronald Schmelzer, Managing Partner at ZapThink, is a well-known expert in the field of
         Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Web Services, and XML-based standards
