Power of Three-in-One

JAX, Enterprise Architektur Konferenz and Eclipse Forum Europe will take place at the same time, in the same building. Enrolling for Eclipse Forum Europe qualifies you to attend all sessions and workshops at our JAX and Enterprise Architektur Konferenz (EAKon) for no additional fee! JAX sessions concentrate on traditional Java topics, frameworks, and development techniques. The EAKon complements JAX by looking at the wider picture, going beyond the scope of Java and Eclipse to cover SOA-related techniques and integration of heterogeneous environments.
