Web Services Essentials: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Web Services Essentials" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

As a developer new to Web Services, how do you make sense of this emerging framework so you can start writing your own services today? This concise book gives programmers both a concrete introduction and a handy reference to XML web services, first by explaining the foundations of this new breed of distributed services, and then by demonstrating quick ways to create services with open-source Java tools.

Web Services make it possible for diverse applications to discover each other and exchange data seamlessly via the Internet. For instance, programs written in Java and running on Solaris can find and call code written in C# that run on Windows XP, or programs written in Perl that run on Linux, without any concern about the details of how that service is implemented. A common set of Web Services is at the core of Microsofts new .NET strategy, Sun Microsystemss Sun One Platform, and the W3Cs XML Protocol Activity Group.

Preface

Web services offer a new and evolving paradigm for buildingdistributed web applications. This book focuses on the essentials of web services and covers four maintechnologies: XML-RPC, SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI. The book offers ahigh-level overview of each technology. It also describes therelevant API and discusses implementation options for eachtechnology. The book includes a broad range of working examples sothat you can immediately see web services in action.

Audience

This book is written for developers who are new to web services. Itaims to to provide you with abig-picture perspective to enableyou to understand the scope and extent of web services, while alsoproviding you with enough nuts and bolts and sample code to startwriting your own services.

When choosing between a proprietary system and an open sourceimplementation, we tend to favor open source implementations. Whenchoosing among programming languages, we tend to favor Java. To makethe most of the book, you should therefore have solid Javaprogramming experience. If you need to brush up on Java, considerthese books:

  • Learning Java , by Patrick Niemeyer and JonathanKnudsen (OReilly & Associates, Inc.)

  • Java in a Nutshell , Fourth Edition, by DavidFlanagan (OReilly)

A basic understanding of eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is alsoimportant. For a solid grounding in XML, consider these books:

  • Learning XML , by Erik T. Ray(OReilly)

  • XML in a Nutshell: A Desktop Quick Reference , byElliotte Rusty Harold and W. Scott Means (OReilly)

First, I want to thank Simon St.Laurent, my editor atOReilly. Simon ushered this book from its veryearliest stages until the very last round of copyediting. He was thefirst person to bring web services to my attention and providedconstant and patient guidance at every step of the way. He alsocontributed . I also want to thank allthe technical reviewers who provided excellent feedback on earlydrafts of the book. Reviewers included Leigh Dodds, Timothy J. Ewald,Martin Gudgin, Simon Horrell, and Tim OReilly.Graham Glass, CEO of The Mind Electric, Inc., answered all of my manyquestions regarding the GLUE platform and WSDL in general. Tony Hong,cofounder of XMethods, Inc., also helped out with questions on SOAPinteroperability and provided permission to reprint the WSDL file forthe XMethods eBay Price Watcher Service. Claire Cloutier served asthe production editor for the book and did an excellent job keepingthe book well-organized and on schedule.
