Product Description

Review

"Web Services have emerged as a powerful tool for building complex but adaptive and agile enterprise systems in heterogeneous environments, enabling effective inter- and intra-enterprise integration. Perspective on Web Services: Applying SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI to Real-World Projects by Olaf Zimmermann, Mark R. Tomlinson, and Stefan Peuser contains erverything you need to know about developing and deploying Web services-oriented enterprise applications. Whatever your role in a Web Services application project - for example, software architect, developer, project manager, or systems administrator - you will find useful information in this book. (...) The authors combine their practical experience in Web service-oriented enterprise applications with reviews and a hands-on examination of the latest Web service specifications and technologies and IBM product capabilities." Dragan Stojanovic on dsonline.computer.org

Product Description

Contains everything that a project team needs to know about the development and deployment of Web services with the IBM WebSphere product family. Includes examples for all development artifacts in a format that can be reused in the reader’s project. The text combines the authors’ own practical experiences with consolidated information on the latest product capabilities in a unique approach that allows the book to be easily accessible to a broad spectrum of readers. Finding a balance between a euphoric/optimistic and down-to earth/realistic view on the subject, this book should sit on every Web service developer’s bookshelf.

First Sentence
Our observation is that the actual business benefits facilitated by Web services solutions mainly depend on the business scenario at hand, as opposed to the long-term vision. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars Thorough text for applying web services for real, 13 May 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Perspectives on Web Services: Applying SOAP, WSDL and UDDI to Real-World Projects (Springer Professional Computing) (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book which helps the reader to gain a broad range of knowledge to help deploy web services in enterprises successfully. It does this by presenting the issues from different viewpoints and inter-relating them so that the reader can apply the information to the decisions which they may faced in their own organisation. It also provides a strong foundation of the specific components of web services technology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Objective, broad ranging and in-depth review, 12 May 2004
This review is from: Perspectives on Web Services: Applying SOAP, WSDL and UDDI to Real-World Projects (Springer Professional Computing) (Hardcover)
This book provides an absolute goldmine of information from experts who have been there and done it, successfully. It will help you address web services from every perspective - strategic, commercial (cost/benefit) as well as architectural, implementation and ongoing support. As such, it has the potential to save huge costs and delays on web services projects by building on the author's previous experience - which is conveyed very objectively and honestly. Highly recommended, and an absolute 'msut' if you are looking to implement web services on the IBM Websphere platform!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for successful webservice projects, 7 Nov 2003
By Andreas Sahlbach "thecoolace" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Perspectives on Web Services: Applying SOAP, WSDL and UDDI to Real-World Projects (Springer Professional Computing) (Hardcover)
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 such a project.
During my time as a technical lead at Hewlett-Packard, I've got the opportunity to participate a pretty expensive software architect workshop. I was pleased to see lots of "Does and Dont's" I've learned in this workshop in the "Architecture Perspective" chapter of this book.
I finally ended up in reading all chapters of the book. I haven't read all pages of this book because of my previous knowledge and because of the excellent offered shortcuts within this book. But the time I've spent reading the rest was a rewarding investment. Whatever role you are going to play in a webservice project: you will find something useful within this book.
And finally don't forget: even Grady Booch thinks this book is a must-have. He wrote a nice forword for the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars IBM SOA Explained, 19 Mar 2006
By Don Whiteside "Solution Architect" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Perspectives on Web Services: Applying SOAP, WSDL and UDDI to Real-World Projects (Springer Professional Computing) (Hardcover)
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!)

5.0 out of 5 stars If you had time or money for just one book on web services..., 10 Nov 2005
By Uday S. Kari - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Perspectives on Web Services: Applying SOAP, WSDL and UDDI to Real-World Projects (Springer Professional Computing) (Hardcover)
If you had to time or money for just one book on Web Services, this would be it. The book truly delivers on different perspectives namely, business, training, architecture, development, operational and "future". You start by learning enough to convince your boss (or clients, in my case) of the benefits of using your approach and then proceed to master the whole XML based implementations as well. Dense read, though: there is enough material in each chapter to cover an entire book. If you are a java programmer, it makes it even better, most probably because the book came out in 2003 when Microsoft .NET was still pretty clueless about all this web services stuff anyway. Even the J2EE world is way ahead of the book in terms of implementation. Still an excellent read, so my only request would be...a second, updated edition!
