Joint Webinar with Layer 7 and Sun: Identity Driven SOA Governance - Best Practices - Podcast Featuring The Burton Group
Presenters:
Anne Thomas Manes (VP and Research Director, Burton Group)
Dr. Toufic Boubez (CTO, Layer 7 Technologies)
Ross Altman (CTO, SOA and Business Integration, Sun Microsystems)
Webinar Overview
Digital Identity is at the heart of the modern business ecosystem. However, governing SOA interactions - particularly across a distributed or federated environment - creates complexity not found in typical user-machine exchanges. Separating policy creation and enforcement from service implementation can simplify SOA governance without compromising scalability, flexibility and auditability - accommodating even the most elaborate, heterogeneous IT landscapes. This Webinar will review best practices for building and operating a policy-centered, identity-driven SOA.
What You Will Learn
* The connection between identity management and SOA governance
* The importance of separating policy and entitlements from service implementation
* The challenges of managing and validating identity in SOA interactions
* Options for managing and enforcing identity-driven SOA policies
* How to implement identity-based governance in real-world SOA
