Wouldn't it be nice to have an easy way to access relevant SOA news from multiple sources? Access that also affords the opportunity to interact with other SOA professionals and gain new insights and skills?
The SMART SOA™ Social Network, ((S3N)) is here for you! ((S3N)) is an overarching on-line and face-to-face Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) network consisting of IBM and third party communities that seek to accelerate the overall understanding and progression of SOA in the marketplace. Through each of these communities, you can find the information and interaction you need to enhance your SOA knowledge and skills.
To begin exploring the communities of ((S3N)), start with SOAsocial.com. SOAsocial is a joint effort sponsored by IBM, but featuring broader community partners like such as InfoQ.com, the SOA Consortium, and the SOA Forum to provide you a one-stop shop for everything SOA. SOAsocial delivers timely SOA content and activities in one easy-to-navigate place. Share your thoughts on SOA and participate with others on SOA polls. Content is always fresh and updated daily. Consider SOAsocial to be your jumping off point into all of the other ((S3N)) communities.
Through the newly created SOA communities on ibm.com, you can narrow the focus of the conversation to specific SOA topics related to your role, industry or geographical region. These SOA communities permit you to hone in on your unique SOA interests and connect with others. Join one, or more, today! If you have an idea for another community, contact us to create one.
((S3N)) also encompasses existing communities, such as the Global WebSphere Community (GWC). The GWC, made up of over 140 user groups throughout the world, is the best place for connecting with other WebSphere enthusiasts whether on-line at websphere.org or in face to face meetings. Broaden these technical discussions, questions and skills building beyond WebSphere through the developerWorks forums.
