Perspectives on Web Services: Applying SOAP, WSDL and UDDI to Real-World Projects (Springer Professional Computing)

Customer Reviews:

A must-have for successful webservice projects

By Andreas Sahlbach "thecoolace" - November 7, 2003

My primary reason for buying this book was the eye-catcher word "Real-World Projects" in the subtitle. I'm a professional developer/architect of enterprise size IT-projects and the fastest way for me to learn new things is by using examples. So in fact the "Development Perspective" chapter was the first chapter I've read and found it very useful if you are going to use WebSphere 5 in your project.
I was pleased to see that the next chapter "Operational Perspective" actually deals with questions regarding deployment and configuration. This is something most books are missing and many projects underestimate the importance of these aspects for a successful rollout.
Finally after reading two very useful chapters (written in an enjoyable style), I've decided to give the other chapters also a try and I wasn't disappointed. This book covers all important aspects for a successful webservice project and I strongly recomment it if you are going to start... read more

IBM SOA Explained

By Don Whiteside "Solution Architect" - March 19, 2006

This book excells in explaining the IBM Toolsets and their applicability in the Web Services and SOA area. Unfortunately they are for version 5 and a version 6.x addendum would be great.

Having said that working the examples into version 6 format is good practice and not too much sweat.

This book provides all the coverage you need if you are dealing with the IBM WebSphere kit (all the IBM Redbooks are also a great help!)

Wide-ranging and thorough

By Doctor Memory "Aged computer geek" - January 7, 2009

I got this book as my first web service reference and haven't needed another. Trying to learn WS technology by reading the standards was pretty daunting. I eventually came to find out that many companies don't provide all the pieces. They'll promote some proprietary legacy technology (that isn't quite useless), or worse, label an early (functional) product 'obsolete' and then never release the new-and-improved successor. This book brought everything together and explained a lot of the side issues and practical trade-offs. I especially appreciated the way the book maps standards (e.g., JAX-RPC) to an implementation (in this case, Apache Axis) using UML. The accompanying web site ([...]) provides updated content and code samples.

While this book is WebSphere-oriented in the development examples, the accompanying explanation provides ample information to permit the reader to adapt them to other Java tools. Developers living in the C++ and .NET worlds might benefit from an... read more
