Who this book is for
SOA is a broad subject matter. It represents a new generation architectural platform that encompasses a series of contemporary technologies (both proprietary and vendor-neutral).
This book will therefore be useful to various IT professionals who are interested in learning more about the following:
- how to build SOA
- service-orientation principles
- designing different types of services for SOA
- service-oriented business modeling
- features provided by key WS-* specifications
- orchestration with WS-BPEL
- SOA support in J2EE and .NET platforms
- modeling business-centric services
- creating design standards for SOA-based solutions
- Web services technology within the context of SOA
