Wahou :-)
We had the chance this evening to meet Mr Gordon Simpson, deputy CTO of BEA Systems.
Some articles from Gordon:
Interview: Focus on solutions
Importance of Software Architecture
A call for agile IT
.
We discussed very intensively different themes, as:
the mid-term vision and positioning of IBM Web Sphere, BEA Web Logic and the Microsoft .NET solutions
the current standardization processes (J2EE, Java, etc.) in comparison with other ones, not so successful (CORBA specs)
the future of SUN (HW, Java)
the strategy of BEA concerning Linux
UDDI: hype or market standard?
offline solution and caching
SOA on IBM mainframes
Real out-of-the-box discussions and a real great person ;-) Thx Gordon for this great workshop!
