Keri Paciencia kpaciencia@schwartz-pr.com ======================================================== When: June 12th, 2002 Where: Burlington Marriott One Mall Road Rt 128 & 3A Burlington, MA 01803 1-781-229-6565 Description: Understanding Enterprise Messaging and Standards-based Integration presents a complete technical introduction to the concepts and architecture models for developing and deploying enterprise-wide messaging and standards-based integration solutions within your organization. Sonic's experts will examine how standards such as Web services, J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) and the Java Message Service (JMS) are changing the way organizations deploy and leverage messaging middleware and integration technology to create more flexible and efficient infrastructures. During this half-day seminar, attendees will be presented with a detailed overview of JMS and high-availability messaging, and how they can be used in a variety of applications. Additionally, the seminar will introduce attendees to the concepts and technology enabling standards-based integration: a more flexible model for business integration that leverages Web services, JCA technology and distributed service-oriented architectures.
