SOA Consortium adds Sun
The SOA Consortium has added Sun Microsystems as a high-level Sponsor member, the consortium said on Monday.
Formed a year ago, the consortium advocates SOA adoption by Global 100 companies, government agencies and mid-market businesses. The organization is scheduled to disband in 2010.
“Sun is pleased to be an advocate for the SOA Consortium and the important work it does in moving the industry toward a distributed service-oriented enterprise environment based on open standards,” said Bill Vass, president and COO of Sun Microsystems Federal, in a statement released by the consortium.
Influencing standards organizations is a goal of the group as well as the exchange of "real-world" insights, redirection of the industry conversation to "business-driven SOA" and influencing technology vendors and service providers.
Other Sponsor-level members include Cisco, IBM, SAP and Sparx Systems. Participant members include organizations such as Software AG, Avis Budget Car Rental and Wells Fargo Bank.
