Canada on Rails: Joe O'Brian

Sorry fighting with apache during this talk so not quite as good notes as the last talk

Joe O’Brian on SOA

  • clear your mind
  • SOA is a pattern
  • Rails not going to hide HTTP/HTML. Understand the underlying stuff
better than ASP/java guys.
  • Let’s not rebuild everything (working with legacy stuff)
  • working with legacy stuff
  • Rails is agile (see picture)
  • able to respond to change
  • Well defined interface
  • sometimes must use SOAP.
  • idea of magically discovering service. Forget that.
  • must be context free.
  • XML is not evil.

I don’t know what the heck this guy was talking about except maybe “SOA is this idea you can use”
