Join Thomas for a Service Design Workshop at the
Gartner Conference in Orlando on June 8th
Four new titles scheduled for release in 2008

Service-oriented computing represents a broadly recognized new generation computing platform that encompasses service-oriented architecture (SOA), the service-orientation design paradigm, and an ever-growing vendor technology marketplace. The enormous benefit potential associated with this platform has sparked a movement that has positioned SOA and service-orientation as the next phase in the evolution of business automation.

The Prentice Hall Service-Oriented Computing Series from Thomas Erl aims to fulfill a critical and growing need within the IT industry for unbiased, practical, and comprehensive guidance and instruction in the areas of SOA, service-orientation, and the expanding technology landscape that is shaping the real-world service-oriented computing platform.

The best-selling titles “Service-Oriented Architecture: Concepts, Technology, and Design” and “Service-Oriented Architecture: A Field Guide to Integrating XML and Web Services” anchor the series and establish a foundation for a number of forthcoming books that will address a wide variety of service-oriented computing topics. Examples of just some of the planned subject matters include SOA governance, security, advanced design, and strategic planning, as well as practical guides for building service-oriented solutions.
