Creating XML and Web Services Solutions

by John Kneiling

Description

The current revolution in Service-Oriented Architecture Frameworks is being implemented by Web Services, an application development and interoperation approach based on XML. Web Services is a low-cost and rapid alternative to in-house development, integration, and ERP support. Enterprises have already begun to benefit from Web Services applications based on J2EE and .NET.

This seminar addresses the roles, benefits, and implementation of Web Services and XML, including Business Intelligence, Enterprise Application Integration (EAI), application design, development, and implementation, key technologies, vendors, products, standards, best practices, performance factors, testing, and data exchange. This is a real-world seminar illustrated with case studies illustrating solutions that are being used by the most successful companies today.
