Smart421 announces today that the WebSphere User Group UK (WUG) has selected Smart421 to speak at this September's conference. Stu Smith, Lead Consultant at Smart421 will present on 'Software Development Life-cycle Hygiene with WebSphere Message Broker in end-to-end SOA'. Stu will join leading IBM speakers Dave Locke, Richard Gamblin and Matt Lucas in the WMQ/WMB theme track.

Abstract of Stu's presentation: "This session by Stu Smith on Software Development Life Cycle with Message Broker is aimed at all levels of users and covers good practice for developing end-to-end SOA capabilities, using Message Broker. Given that Message Broker is a powerful set of tools; there are several ways of achieving the same functional outcome. However, each different method has implications in terms of non-functional aspects, such as performance, testability, and repeatability. Stuart will investigate some of the pros and cons of various "good" practices and "not-so-good" practices and equip session attendees with some new angles on Message Broker that they will be able to take away and apply in their own projects."

The WebSphere User Group will take place 23rd March 2011 at IBM Bedfont, 1 New Square, Bedfont Lakes, Feltham, Middlesex TW14 8HB.
