Heidi Buelow is a product manager for the Oracle SOA Suite. She spent the last 10 years building business process management systems with a focus on service integration and interoperability of diverse systems. Heidi’s career developing service-oriented architecture started with the early services- and object-oriented transport and messaging stacks of Xerox PARC’s XNS networking protocols.
