EMEA Community Forum great success

I have just returned from the EMEA SOA Community event in Utrecht. It is probably the best Oracle forum event I've been to in over a decade of being being an Oracle Partner. Join the community now to ensure you don't miss out on next years event.

SOA, BPM and User Interface skills will be key and projects will become iterative and agile.
