Lunch on Linux webcasts will now be held quarterly. Each webcast will be followed by a Lunch-and-Learn style seminar to provide a deeper dive into the subject matter that has been presented. These in-depth discussions will be held live in the Northern Virginia/DC metropolitan area. Please join us this quarter for the following webcast and Lunch-and-Learn:

Topic: “Meeting the SOA Data Challenge: Implementing Data Services for Improved Information Sharing”
Speaker: Rob Cardwell, former CTO of MetaMatrix
During this session Rob Cardwell, Red Hat’s Vice President of Development, will discuss the data challenges in SOA development and the requirements for addressing these challenges. Rob will explore the concept of Data Services, a primary building block of SOA along with BPM and ESB technologies. He will also discuss where data is de-coupled and abstracted between data sources and the service consumer, and finally where data federation and data integration can take place and be managed appropriately.
Former CTO of MetaMatrix from 2002-2007, Rob Cardwell has over 20 years of software development and information management experience, primarily in the healthcare, financial services, and public sectors. Rob joined Red Hat through the acquisition of MetaMatrix in May 2007, and now serves as Red Hat’s Vice President of Development.
As an added bonus, if you register and attend the March 26 Lunch and Learn, Red Hat and DLT will donate $5 on your behalf to America’s Second Harvest. For more information, visit their site at http://www.secondharvest.org/.
