To whom this book aimed for?
This book, Java Web Services for Experienced Programmers,
is part of the new Deitel Developer Series, intended for the
Experienced software developer who wants a deep treatment of a
new technology with minimal, if any, introductory material.
"Detailed treatments of language topics for experienced
programmers".
Key Features of this Book:
Comprehensive coverage of the following things.
XML, DOM, SOAP, WSDL, UDDI, Java API for XML Processing (JAXP),
Java API for XML-based Remote Procedure Calls (JAX-RPC), Java
API for XML Messaging (JAXM), Java API for XML Registries (JAXR,
J2EE, Web services Security and Wireless Web Services.
Organization of the Book:
This book is divided into several sections. Chapters 2–5
introduce XML, which is the foundation technology for Web
services. We explore the basics of creating XML and manipulating
documents using the Java API for XML Processing (JAXP). Chapters
6–8 describe the core technologies and standards associated with
Web services, including the Simple Object Access Protocol
(SOAP), SOAP-Based Web-Services Platforms, Web Services
Description Language (WSDL) and Universal Description Discovery
and Integration (UDDI). Chapters 9–11 present the primary Java
technologies for implementing Web services and Web services
clients and for manipulating XML registries, such as the Java
API for XML-based Remote Procedure Calls (JAX-RPC), the Java API
for XML Messaging (JAXM), and the Java API for XML Registries (JAXR).
Reflecting on the enormous importance of Web-services security,
Chapters 12 and 13 introduce the fundamentals of computer
security and discuss the various technologies for securing Web
services, such as XML Encryption, XML Key Management
Specification (XKMS), Security Assertions Markup Language (SAML)
and Extensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML). Chapter
14 presents the available APIs and technologies for integrating
wireless devices, such as cell phones, into Web-services
infrastructures.
Chapters 15–17 present a capstone case study that integrates
many of the technologies discussed in Java Web Services for
Experienced Programmers, to build a significant
Web-services-based application.
MY OUTLOOK:
This book is intended for experienced programmers. I take
pleasure in reading this book. This book starts with an overview
of the technologies presented in Java Web Service, and provides
detailed description about XML, DTD, XSLT and DOM the key
enabling technologies for web services. Then it describes the
building blocks of Web Services SOAP, WSDL and UDDI. Besides it
also covers all the Java XML API's for the Web Services
development. The case studies and the 103 Live-code programs
elucidate all the details about the Java Web Services. This book
also explores all the security issues such as Basic security
issues, SSL, XML Signature, XML Encryption, XKMS, SAML, XACML
and WS-Security in a comprehensive manner.
