The Evolution of Integration

After roughly ten years of SOA and nearly 20 years of EAI it is an excellent time to take a look at where integration is going, where is has come from, what works and what hasn't worked. In this session, Paul Fremantle, CTO of WSO2 will take a detailed look at the latest trends in Integration, including the API movement, the focus on JSON and REST compared to SOAP and SOA. In particular Paul will take a long hard look at the reality of the currently available approaches, and the pros and cons of different integration technologies. In particular the use of asynchronous messaging and non-blocking, shared nothing approaches to integration are driving the highest volume of load, and the session will dig into real examples of integration including high-volume scenarios.

The session is aimed at integration specialists, architects and developers working with high-volume distributed systems.
