JBoss World is rapidly approaching. This year promises to be a very interesting conference co-located with Red Hat Summit. I encourage you to register and attend!

I will be presenting some of the latest on our SOA and business process automation strategy in my session - Competitive Advantage with Open Source Business Process Automation - at 10:50AM, Thursday, September 3.

Abstract

Today's economic challenges and government regulatory turbulence force companies to rapidly respond to change in order to survive. The enterprises that can quickly respond to a changing customer set, demand, and environment will prosper.

Problem - traditional enterprise and web application architecture does not enable the responsiveness that is required today. Solution - Enter business process automation with JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform integration, business rules, and business event-driven architecture.

In this presentation Pierre Fricke, director of product line management at Red Hat, explores how far open source JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform, JBoss Enterprise BRMS and JBoss jBPM have come, and how they help enterprises prosper in difficult and turbulent times.

Additional notes

Beyond the abstract above, you will learn some other things about the economy, history, real estate manias and busts, how businesses can improve in this environment using business process automation, what the "Wizard of OZ" was really about, and even where the icon for the haunted house in the American psyche came from (just in time for the Halloween parties)! :-).

Please join us and have fun!
