With over 13 years of industry experience and a proven track record in enterprise architecture definition, legacy integration, technology strategy and migration, project management and full-lifecycle IT solution delivery, Dev Worah will be giving a session in New York City later this month at AJAXWorld 2008 East entitled "Creating Agile Business Solutions in Financial Services using RIAs & Other Emerging Technologies."

Worah is Director of Technology for Financial Services, Virtusa Corp, responsible for providing technology direction to the company's FS teams, developing partnerships and providing leadership and vision into technology trends. He has been at the forefront of managing implementations employing SOA, Web 2.0, BPM, RIA, AJAX, CEP for top financial services firms.

"Financial Services firms are faced with increasing pressure to improve profits, reduce risks, improve client retention, and optimize operational efficiencies," Worah says. "Leaders in this industry are leveraging IT as a competitive advantage to create business agility."

These firms are increasingly utilizing RIAs in conjunction with other technology areas, including business process management (BPM), event-driven and service-oriented architectures (EDA and SOA), business activity monitoring (BAM), and software-as-a-service (SaaS) to deliver agile business solutions, says Worah.
