Prolifics University: SOA, Workflow and Integration

Speaker: Bob Backofen, Prolifics Portal Practice Manager

The old adage "If It Ain’t Broke, Don’t Fix It" doesn’t apply here. The purpose of SOA is to take your current processes and break them apart, making them modular so you can eliminate redundancies and better manage complex tasks which combine both human and automated tasks.

This doesn’t mean starting from scratch – you can leverage your existing assets by migrating them to an optimal portal solution, as well as choreographing composite applications.

Bob Backofen is responsible for new business development and architecting solutions for Prolifics' clients. From proof-of-concept to project deployment, he is heavily involved with key accounts where he assists the IBM and Prolifics teams in best shaping the optimal technology solutions for customers. Bob specializes in Portal Solutions, and has helped develop the portal vision for such clients as JP Morgan Chase, Ernst & Young, Mercer Oliver Wyman, Weil Gotshal, MetLife, and Amalgamated Life. Bob has over 20 years of experience designing, developing and deploying transactional, client/server systems, and currently focuses on application development and deployment upon portal architectures. Prior to joining Prolifics, Bob was Project Manager, Team Leader and Lead Developer at Manufacturers Hanover Trust Company. He holds a B.S. in Computer Science from the New York Institute of Technology.
