Business intelligence (BI) and service-oriented architecture (SOA) have conflicting principles and needs. SOA promotes hiding the data inside the services while BI needs that very data if we want to get meaningful predictions and alerts. This article will show you how you can combine SOA with EDA to solve the BI/SOA conflict and maybe even enhance your SOA.
The majority of today's SOA design techniques are centered around definition of services. They use service-oriented decomposition, based on the business processes, enterprise business/functional model, required long term architectural goals and reuse of the existing enterprise functionality. This article takes a more data centric approach...

Security is all about trade-offs you make with your always limited resources, often a problem when designing a system or an after-thought. Only a few have the expertise to design good security and most development teams have no security expert. This talk focuses on Security Patterns for designing security in architectures, such as Role-based Access Control, Single Access Point, and Front Door.
An Ajax application can go for several hours without leaving the original page. In this talk, Dave Crane explores ways to apply design patterns to the client tier, and how the use of patterns compares with the server-side. He examines the tension between maintaining server-control and delegating control to the client, and looks at the pros and cons of each architecture with real-world examples.
