SYS-CON Events announced today that Anil Patel, Software Architect of Harris Corporation, will be presenting at the upcoming SOA World Conference & Expo 2009 East (www.soaworld2009.com) June 22-23, 2009, in New York City.

His session will be entitled "Identity Propagation in N-Tier Enterprise Systems"

Anil Patel, a Software Architect at Harris Corporation, is currently a member of the Harris Enterprise Architecture Core Technology Center conducting research on IA and standards for SOA. He worked as a Chief Technology Officer and architect for a secure wireless messaging platform for smart devices, a secure appliance to provision wi-fi services to hospitality institutions, and voice based cardiology interpretation reporting software

Identity Propagation in N-Tier Enterprise Systems
SOA promises great productivity and flexibility, but security continues to lag. The ideal is to provide trusted frameworks that enforce policies, and remove security logic from application code. WS-Security is only good at the web service tier. In N-tier systems users are authenticated at the client, ultimately determining access to data stores. The challenge is to create a framework for propagating credentials across N-tiers, without application security code. This session will describe a prototype framework that propagates credentials through web application, web service and database tiers, applying label-based access control within the database. Gaps in web and SOA standards will also be discussed.

In these recessionary times when every IT dollar must be made to count, the 15th International SOA World Conference & Expo (June 22-23, 2009, in New York) will be about showing attending delegates how their business or organization can start doing the same, and offering them resources, ideas and examples they can apply immediately.

This June's SOA World, which is the world's number one longest-running SOA event, will feature parallel content-rich tracks reflecting the worldwide adoption of the distributed computing paradigm, in which web services are deployed through specific service-oriented architectures and in which reusable components are core to the overall vision.

The technical program in June in New York City will provide a framework about how to understand policies, composites, lifecycle governance, loose coupling, heterogeneous distributed systems, adaptability vs. stability, service portfolio management - every relevant aspect of SOA as a framework for constructing and interlinking a company's back-end systems with the overall goal of lowering cost and adding flexibility.

Many organizations have already adopted SOA development models to deliver flexible and agile application components, but SOA is about people as much as technology, which is why so many companies send delegates to SOA World to accelerate their journey toward becoming SOA-enabled enterprises.

Architects, developers and managers making SOA design decisions will learn about CIO-pleasing governance principles and much more. There's simply no other conference like it.

Come join us in New York's midtown Manhattan in June!

Delegates Will Learn How SOA Can:

• Help their businesses respond more quickly and cost-effectively to changing market conditions
• Promote the goal of separating users (consumers) from the service implementations
• Let them achieve the optimum balance between business needs, technology potential, and IT costs

Co-located with AJAXWorld RIA Conference & Expo
The big winners in the world of online commerce are those that make the quality of the user experience (UX) the centerpiece of their overall online strategy.

In the current economic climate, IT managers are under continuous pressure to justify spending time and money on user-experience research and design. What does that mean to developers, architects, business users, and value?

At the 7th International AJAX World RIA Conference & Expo in New York City this June, the conference theme is "Driving Profitability Through the User Experience" - there will be the year's top keynotes, general sessions, breakout sessions, and industry panels that explore and explain how simple, rich interfaces that don't get in the way of the user's experience but enhance it are increasingly becoming tied to value creation, profitability and staying-power in the marketplace.

IT professionals of every stripe will come away with an enhanced understanding of what it takes to effectively evaluate, design and build online experiences that are compelling, usable, and profitable. Our organizing principle is that attending delegates should leave the Conference with abundant resources, ideas and examples they can apply immediately to leveraging the technologies they see on display and hear under discussion.
