Tuesday 27, 9:45am
@gwicke is the owner of the Service Oriented Architecture theme at the #MWDS15. He is also in charge of organizing the SOA plenary session, or find someone to organize it.
## Topics
- Intro (max 5 minutes)
- Why SOA?
- what has happened so far (parsoid, mathoid, citoid, restbase, PHP API perf improvements, auth service planning)
- What has worked, what hasn't (discussion, ~5 minutes)
- What is next (discussion, ~35 minutes)
- long-term API roadmap
- scaling down for testing and third-party use; should we start targeting [cheap](https://www.atlantic.net/vps/vps-hosting/) [VMs](http://www.ovh.com/us/vps/vps-classic.xml) with packages or images?
- how can we move towards multi-DC operation without making life for each service author really complicated? (move to T86372?)
- moving faster: what can we do to speed up service & API end point development (see also "SOA and operations" / T86138, currently [scheduled right after this](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Developer_Summit_2015#Tuesday.2C_January_27) plenary)
