No Limits. No Compromises. It’s Application Infrastructure built for the future.
Enterprises have been building mission-critical applications using Java for over 10 years. During this decade the tools have gotten richer, the environments more complex, and the demands ever greater.
In this introductory session we explore :
- Current IT trends putting application environments under increasing pressure
- The requirements of IT to support the next generation of application development
- What really matters at the foundation of your IT system
- How your IT foundation should support innovative new solutions and technology
|
10:00 – 10:30 |
The Reality of Application Infrastructure
In this session a well know Organization will share their experiences of building a reliable foundation for their future. |

The Right Future Proof Foundation: It’s the Next Generation Application Server
The role of the application server is changing. While still the container for web applications, business logic and traditonal java applications, the application server is not seen as the "engine" to run the services that make up your Service Orientated Architecture. New, innovative, creative applications including Rich Internet Applications, Business Process Management Systems, Web 2.0 functionality and Software As A Service are all placing pressures on the applications that reside on an Application Server.
In this session we will address:
- The challenges and pressures placed on the Application Server
- What to look for in an Application Server
- The Application Server as the foundation for SOA

Best Practices Workshop
Attend this interactive workshop run by a leading BEA Enterprise Architect who will present best practices, reference architecture and practical real world experience of using the BEA Application Infrastructure family of products. The information presented and discussed will be based on customer deployments, architecture and experience from the field of using WebLogic in real world systems and architectures. |
DEMO: WebLogic Guardian |

Responding in Real Time: It’s Event Driven Architecture
Companies face large numbers of complex events daily, and responses are expected in real time. Whether it is streaming stock data for financial services, or real-time vehicle-location data for transportation and logistics companies, businesses in multiple industries must handle large volumes of complex data in real time simply to operate.
The adoption of an Event-Driven architecture enables the enterprise to discern patterns and trends that would otherwise go unnoticed, giving them the ability to identify and anticipate opportunities and threats represented by seemingly unrelated events.
In this session, learn how Event-Driven Computing can help you:
- Sense and respond to incredibly high volumes of message and event in real time
- Use Event Driven Architecture (EDA) to meet Extreme Transaction Processing (XTP) requirements
- How EDA and SOA work seamlessly together
- Develop a competitive advantage using EDA

Greater Agility at a Lower Cost: It’s Virtualization 2.0
With corporate data centres at or near their physical limit, virtualization is fast emerging as the best way to meet the growing demand for computing capacity.
In addition, for those organizations actively associated with green IT initiatives, Virtualization also has a key role to play in enabling the ‘green data centre’ by reducing the volume of servers, the energy used and enabling fuller use of underutilized computing resources.
Despite the potential of virtualization, a recent survey commissioned by BEA amongst almost 500 European organizations, indicated that awareness and knowledge of virtualization was polarized.
In this session we address:
- What is virtualization (the Java, software and hardware perspective) ?
- How to virtualize your data centre ?
- How to do more work with less hardware and still be more agile than before virtualization?
- How to determine the potential benefits for your organization ?

Predictable and Mission Critical: It's Real Time Java
Customers, market at large, & competitive environments are demanding firms in the financial services, telecommunications, manufacturing, government sectors, and in many other industries to be instantly responsive to customer demands and market changes. Ability to conduct business at light speed will drive higher revenues, higher customer satisfaction & loyalty, and a leadership position in the marketplace.
However, these performance benchmarks have not been possible to date using standard Java-based technology, despite the ever-increasing demand to move IT infrastructure to Java. Low latency, predictable Java in the JVM is now a reality. Often going hand in hand with Event Driven Architectures, Real-time java supports applications that demand microsecond response times predictably.
In this session we address:
- What is Real-Time Java in the JVM
- How does deterministic java deliver predicatble low latency computing
- What role does Real-time java play in Event Driven Architecture
- Tooling and management of real-time java applications

Education Workshop
Join us in a free classroom based, hands on technical training course on the BEA Application Infrastructure product family.
This training course will give you a fast start to building applications using WebLogic. The course will be run by BEA education services and will cover using the BEA Workshop tools along with WebLogic Server. |

Eclipsing Conventional Wisdom: It's Next Generation Development
Be it presentation layer, middle tier or backend development, the choice of framework, technology and tooling is a critical choice. From simplifying SOA enablement to developing Rich Internet Applications through to blending open source and commercial software, the role of the development and architecture has never been more important.
In this interactive session we explore in detail BEA and OSGI. |
