SOA Testing
Lori MacVittie reviewed the Lisa 3.5 SOA testing platform from iTKO, and found it praiseworthy. Unlike other testing tools that just alert you to a problem between services, Lisa can delve deeply into disparate systems and provide detailed reports on uncovered bottlenecks.
Also, if you missed the Netseminar earlier this week, SOA requires consistency and control that cannot rely on a "Save it for later" quality process, not to worry: you can still listen to the archive online. It’s about an hour long including some audience Q&A at the end with the speakers Rami Jaamour and Wayne Ariola from Parasoft.

Pondering Pub/Sub
In his latest podcast Udi addresses the limitations in setting up a Publish/Subscribe platform using the Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) support of distribution lists and public queues in Active Directory. As he puts it, "It's hard to call it a Pub/Sub platform if you don't have sub."
Udi also mentions a TechEd presentation given by Microsoft's Ron Jacobs titled, Patterns and Anti-Patterns for SOA, which is available online (as indicated by the link).

SOA Netseminar Coming Up
Just a quick plug for one of our upcoming netseminars happening on October 17:
"SOA requires consistency and control that cannot rely on a 'Save it for later' quality process." The featured speakers will be Rami Jaamour and Wayne Ariola from Parasoft. The netseminar description says that Rami and Wayne, "... will introduce a gated quality/provisioning process to ensure that your SOA is secure, reliable and compliant." These typically run about an hour, although this one might run longer if the announcer repeats the title of the seminar more than once. It's free, it's live, and you can submit questions to the speakers during the netcast.

Compatible Ajax
From XML to JavaScript to you name it, Ajax development employs on plenty of open standards, but there are also plenty of proprietary systems being promoted to simplify building and deploying Ajax-style apps. Now two industry experts are advocating some common levels of support for Javascript APIs among competing toolkits in the article: Dashboard: Developers Face Ajax Compatibility Crisis.
