Presentation overview
A Technical Overview of Web Services and Related Technologies:
A service oriented architecture meets the demands of businesses to supply
solutions to their vast array or partners, customers, and employees - by
allowing them to easily unlock all of their corporate assets. Including
legacy mainframe, multi-user Unix, JMS, JDBC, data and information sources.
Web services technologies apply a service oriented computing architecture,
which fulfills the promise of the Internet by building to the unknown
future.
An effective Web service requires awareness of many new, as well as some
existing technologies. This presentation will cover the core technologies in
detail, including SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI - and how to leverage industry
standards such as J2EE(tm) and XML. In addition you will learn the
fundamental skills needed to produce, deploy, and consume a web service.
Topics include how to build a web service, expose it via SOAP, describe it
via WSDL, register it via UDDI and finally discover a web service and invoke
it using a SOAP client. Deploy all of your web services into a standard J2EE
application server such as SilverStream Application Server, WebSphere, or
WebLogic.
