Fidel Prieto Estrada is a fan of new technologies who has been working with SOA in several integration technologies for 8 years in various industries, which has given him deep integration knowledge and a broad vision for problem solving.

He holds a bachelor of computer science degree from the University of Seville as well as more than 10 certifications, including WSO2 ESB 4 Developer, Oracle SOA Suite 11g, Oracle Unified BPM Suite 11g Essentials, EXIN Secure Programming Foundations, and ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level. He also completed the WSO2 ESB for Developers advanced course.

Jack Rider is both a Spanish and US citizen, but he spends most of his time in the UK and Europe these days. After completing his degree in computer technology in Pittsburgh, Jack began his career in hospitality industry technology before moving to ERP, becoming a SAP consultant and then discovering the open source arena around 21 years ago. Jack has always been a firm believer in open source technology as a principle that led him, almost inevitably, to WSO2 and Chakray Consulting, where he is the CTO. Jack has a keen interest in physics, particularly in quantum theory. He was also the vice chairman of the Spanish Astronomy Association, which is congruous with his philosophy that sleep is overrated.

This book will help you explore the various capabilities of WSO2, from simple and generic to more complex and powerful. It will give you an introduction to a service-oriented architecture in general and is focused on the WSO2 world in order to put into context the principles and the target area where we can apply the knowledge and the techniques outlined in the book. This book will help the reader understand the SOA architecture even without any prior knowledge of it, making the book readable for everyone interested in learning to develop with WSO2 servers, with or without prior experience.

We will also learn how to use mediators to create APIs and proxy services, with which we can perform different actions such as transforming the payload or making a conditional route inside to create smarter web services. We will also learn how to handle the quality of service configuration to apply security, throttling, and caching to the services.
