SDA INDIA MAGAZINE AND WWW.SDA-INDIA.COM ANNOUNCES SOA INDIA 2007, NOVEMBER 19-20 2007, BANGALORE, INDIA

Bangalore, May 29, 2006 - SDA India Magazine and www.SDA-INDIA.com, a premier IT information portal, today announced SOA India 2007 (http://www.soaindia2007.com/), a two day event (November 19-20 2007) that focuses on providing strategic and business insights on SOA, SaaS, BPM, BPEL, MDM, Agile, BI, and Enterprise 2.0, to the Indian Enterprise IT community of CIOs, CTOs, Management, IT Directors, IT Managers, IT Architects, Network and Infrastructure Specialists, Project Managers, Project Leaders, and Software Architects. SOA India 2007 will be held at the J N Tata Auditorium, Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore.

“While the average Indian IT professional's SOA learning curve is low, the biggest hurdle to deployment is often met at the level of executive buy-in, where "business results" take importance over "cutting-edge”. SDA India Magazine's curtain-raiser to the SOA Management Summit India 2007, “Tapping Into the Power of SOA”, on the sidelines of JAX India 2007, has met with overwhelming response from C-level executives, business process managers, IT directors, IT managers, IT architects, Network and Infrastructure specialists, looking for the latest information, trends, and solutions available for deployments that can yield substantial business returns. SOA Management Summit India 2007 is in direct response to this need for information,” said Dilip Thomas, Executive Director & CEO of S&S Media (India).

The market for SOA, including software, services and hardware, will reach $21 billion by 2007, according to IDC. The trend is corroborated by a Springboard Research report that predicts the Indian SOA market to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 49 percent from 2006-2009, making it the fastest growing market in the region. SOA India 2007 will provide impetus to this adoption by providing vendors the opportunity to showcase their products, services, and solutions to hundreds of decision-makers from India’s burgeoning small and medium enterprises that are on the cusp of moving over to the big league. SOA India 2007 will handpick participants from verticals such as Banking, Insurance, Telecom, Energy, Media, Transportation, Retail, and Government.
