One of the biggest challenges in SOA Adoption is governance. According to IBM: "Governance is the means of establishing and enforcing how a group agrees to work together. Specifically, there are two aspects to governance:

• Establishing chains of responsibility, authority, and communication to empower people by determining who has the rights to make what decisions.
• Establishing measurement, policy, and control mechanisms to enable people to carry out their roles and responsibilities"
In this webinar, we will explore the topic of SOA governance in general and then look at how WebSphere Service Registry and Repository (WSRR) helps enable and support SOA governance solutions.

Description: In this webinar we will look at how a combination of SOA and Cloud Computing technologies are helping organizations build robust, scalable, and adaptable IT systems. We will examine fundamentals of both SOA and Cloud and explore how these technologies can work together. Finally, we will dispel the misconception that SOA and the Cloud are competing or incompatible technologies.

The attendees of this webinar will be given a high-octane overview of some of the more popular SOA-related open source projects. The webinar is aimed at helping developers, designers, architects, IT managers and business analysts to navigate in the myriad of SOA-related technologies.
