That was without a doubt a perfect week. I'm of course talking about the WSO2Con 2011 which was held last month at Colombo, Sri Lanka. We are still trying to cope up with the continuous flow of complements, well wishes, congratulations and thank you notes. There's no doubt in my mind that it was the most elegant and most successful technical event Sri Lanka (and perhaps even Asia) has ever witnessed. We had over 20 technical presentations conducted by people from various countries and organizations. We had participants from all corners of the world; USA, UK, Russia, India, China, New Zealand, Mexico...you name it. If you are doing anything related to web services or SOA that was the place to be. (If you missed it this year, start planning for next year right now)
The opening keynote of WSO2Con delivered by Dr. Sanjiva Weerawarana is now available on-line. This speech is about WSO2, WSO2 history and WSO2 vision. It's about what we have achieved, how we operate and what we intend to conquer in the years to come.
Within just a matter of 6 years, WSO2 has managed to develop a comprehensive SOA middleware platform which consists of around 15 products and a very powerful cloud platform. WSO2 products are used by some of the largest organizations in the world to handle billions of business transactions. WSO2 offers the only complete SOA PaaS in the cloud which is capable of hosting web services, web applications, data services, mashups, business processes, gadgets, integration flows and more. And WSO2 has managed to do all this while adhering to true open source principles and open standards.
This speech is about these great achievements, what motivated us to do what we do and how we are going to scale the game up in the future.
