Java/EE Web Services and SOA @ Work: Architecture & Development

Have you tried to deploy J2EE Web Services and thrown up your hands in frustration at the lack of tool support? Do you want to know how to develop and deploy Java EE-compliant Web Services so that they work every time? Would you like to see how to develop/deploy Web Services in Spring with XFire? Are you wondering if SOA is just hype and fluff? Do you think SOA is just marketing's re-packaging of Web Services? Would you like to know how Web Services and SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) fit together? If so, then this talk is for you.

The new Java EE 5 Web Services standard and Spring/XFire were both designed for interoperability and simplicity. We'll show how to develop a POJO (Plain Old Java Object) as a Web Service using each technology stack. We'll also show how to design Web Services and how this fits with SOA. This presentation covers:
* Web Services Overview * Business Reasons for Using Web Services * Java EE 5 and Web Services (including Java EE 5 annotations) * Implementing/Deploying a Java EE 5 Web Service * Implementing/Deploying a Spring/XFire Web Service * Developing a Web Service Client * Web Services Architecture and SOA

Intended audience: Experienced Java/EE architects & developers
