Web
Services is a major area for growth in the programming
industry. Indeed Microsoft have staked their company on it,
completely re-engineering the
Windows platform for this
purpose. In the
Java world, a system for distributed,
highly scalable, maintainable enterprise systems is already
in place. The software engineer must merely add an
additional layer, that of
Web Services, in order to enable
implementation independent cross application communication
for distributed applications. This also means simpler
enterprise application integration (EAI) through standard
models for publishing, discovering, and binding to Web
Services. This book teaches the core standards for Web
Services today including
SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI, giving
practical advice on implementing Web Services in enterprise
applications.
Professional Java Web Services concisely explains the
important technologies and specifications behind web
services. The book outlines the architecture of web
services, and the latest information on implementing web
services.
