Animato’s Seminar on SOA: Accelerating Business Alignment elicits strong CIO response

DALLAS, TEXAS, February 27, 2008 — Attendees of Animato’s recently concluded seminar on SOA: Accelerating Business Alignment expressed their deep satisfaction with the event and its relevance. Specifically designed for CIOs, the seminar sought to demystify Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), discuss its impact on business growth, flexibility and efficiency, and share actionable SOA strategies for organizations.

Technology executives from airline, healthcare, oil and gas, financial services, biomedical and other industries came together to understand SOA nuances, participate in a meaningful dialogue, and discuss industry-specific issues.

“We were delighted to watch the audience interaction and questions raised – from managing large numbers of integrations to the difficulty in funding new strategic initiatives to controlling maintenance costs. They all pointed to the timeliness and importance of this topic. What was really valuable was to hear Ken Nelson of Texas Health Resources recount his organization’s first-hand experience with the SOA readiness initiative”, said Larry Settles, Senior Vice President at Animato.

The presenters were Ken Nelson of Texas Health Resources, Keith Dlott of Oracle, and Herb Askie of Animato.
