Welcome!

Welcome to The "A" in SOA - a place where you can find out the inside scoop on what's happening in the world of SOA, with a particular emphasis on SOA solutions from  IBM Rational. I look forward to providing some insight on Rational's approach to SOA, and updating this blog with links to new demos, webcasts, podcasts and other materials, as well as providing commentary and discussion on SOA more generally.

A little background - I'm currently the Market Manager for SOA at Rational, which means it's my job to bring Rational's SOA solutions to market, through events such as IMPACT and RSDC, live webcasts, podcasts and demos, and technical whitepapers. Rational has an extensive portfolio of SOA solution offerings, and I'll be addressing these in upcoming posts.

So, check back here often to find whats new with current and upcoming Rational SOA solutions such as tools like Rational Application Developer, Rational Asset Manage, Rational AppScan and Telelogic System Architect.

Also - drop me a note on how we can improve our marketing outreach, our product portfolio and this blog.

For more information, you can go to the Rational SOA homepage at IBM.
