SCA PPT

Just a quick update for those who asked: Philly JUG SCA presentation can be found
here.

Philly JUG SCA Presentation

First of all, thanks to Dave Fecak and the Philly JUG for having me over. It was great to meet everyone and we had some really good follow-up discussions. I'm definitely planning to make it over for some future meetings: next one features Cameron Purdy from Tangosol (soon Oracle!).

I promised I'd post the presentation slides here. Turns out Blogger only allows image uploads. The good news: Dave is loading the ppt on the JUG site. As soon as that is up, I'll post a link back to it from here as well.

In the meantime, feel free to post follow up questions as comments here or send me an email at greg.pavlik@oracle.com. I'm on the west coast now, so bear with me if you don't hear from me right away.

SCA goes to OASIS

Big news, the OSOA alliance has contributed the SCA and SDO specifications to OASIS. Dana Gardner has an interesting take on this: it will do for SOA what J2EE did for application servers. I'll be talking about SCA on the east coast next Tuesday at the Philly JUG and in more depth in Europe at the Systems Integration Conference.

Nex-Gen Application Platform

A brief interview with Thomas Kurian on the important trends that are likely to impact Java developers.

Philly Java User Group talk on SCA

If you are in the greater Philadelphia area, I'll be giving a talk on the Service Component Architecture, SOAs and Java programming at the Philadelphia Java User's Group on March 27.
