Microsoft MVP To Discuss WOA

     Join us on Tuesday, August 18th at the Microsoft Offices in Ft. Lauderdale as Jesus Rodriguez, Chief Architect of Tellago, Inc., Microsoft BizTalk Svr MVP, and Oracle ACE will take us from SOA to WOA.
 
     Despite being one of the latest acronyms in the never ending distributed programming dictionary, Web Oriented Architectures (WOA) represents one of the most important architecture styles in service orientation. In a nutshell, WOA incorporates the principles of the Web and Representational State Transfer (REST) into Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) to achieve high levels of performance, availability and scalability. This session explores the fundamental principles and patterns of Web Oriented Architectures (WOA) and how they can enhance the way we build SOA solutions today. Specifically, we will demonstrate how REST enables a new set of patterns around key SOA principles such as service composition, message brokering, routing, publish-subscribe messaging, load distribution and long running transactions. Finally, we will compare and contrast WOA with the traditional patterns we use to build services today in order to help architects and developers to select the right architecture style for the right scenario.

1st Prize: The Kaleidoscope Projector



Oooohh. The Pretty Colors
This is the electronic kaleidoscope that rotates at the touch of a button, projecting an array of ever-changing colors on walls or ceilings. A focused LED housed in the spherical chamber projects light through a rotating, removable disc that contains differently colored plastic shapes. Colored light is then refracted by three mirrors arranged in a coaxial, triangular formation inside the barrel--the mirrors' taper generates a multi-colored pattern. The removable disc's contents may be supplanted by transparent beads or other small objects for different colors. Two transparent knobs on either side of the light chamber each house a single LED that changes colors, providing an ambient glow. A knob on the front of the projector's tube enables you to focus the pattern onto any flat surface. The projector easily fits on a desk or table.

The Kaleidoscope Projector Winner:
