Web Services and XML:
Tools, Technologies, and Architecture

by John Kneiling

Description

Web Services and XML are the technologies of choice for mainstream applications across virtually every major industry today. The standards and specifications for this technology are defined by W3C, Oasis, and other groups, as well as the vendors themselves, who support .NET, Java, and other implementations. This seminar guides delegates through these architectural approaches, and examines tools and products that support the development of Web Services and XML applications and frameworks, including XML vocabularies, design, and organization, Web Services and XML implementation of a service-oriented architecture (SOA), .NET and Java application servers, object-relational-XML mapping, XML databases, and XML middleware. The course emphasizes best-practices in Web Services and XML development.
