SYS-CON's SOA World Magazine announced today that nominations are now open for the SOA World Magazine Readers' Choice Awards, which recognize excellence in the software, solutions, and services provided by the industry's top vendors. SYS-CON's Readers' Choice Awards, also known as the "Oscars of the Software Industry," has been one of the most prestigious industry award programs for more than a decade. This year's SOA awards will be given in 20 categories and the award-winning products and services will be selected by SOA World Magazine readers.
"The i-Technology professionals and software architects who constitute the dedicated readers of SOAWorld Magazine are personally, professionally, and often passionately involved in the front-line of Enterprise IT. Their recognition is hard to win," said Jeremy Geelan, Sr. Vice-President of SYS-CON Media. "That is why we are so excited to be launching these Readers' Choice awards, an open competition that gives everyone an equal chance, no matter what part of the Enterprise IT ecosystem they inhabit, of giving recognition to the service-oriented companies solutions they commend the most."
The nominations deadline is August 31, 2009, and voting will begin September 1, 2009, and end October 23, 2009. Winners will be announced the week of November 2-4, 2009.
Service-oriented architectures have evolved over the past few years out of the original vision of loosely coupled Web services replacing constrained, stovepiped applications throughout enterprise IT. Every major enterprise technology vendor today has developed its own SOA strategy, supported by innumerable mid-size companies and start-ups offering specific SOA aspects or entire solutions.
