This book is a strategic roadmap for building next generation J2EE Web Services solutions architecture. It provides the reader with the concepts, design approach and implementation guidelines for adapting Web Services technology (e.g., Java, XML, UDDI and SOAP) with extensive real-world examples from the Financial Services industry. The book also includes extensive design and implementation details on adapting various technologies. The author discusses how Web Services technology, mainframe interoperability, services consolidation, wireless technology and XML are used in various business areas. The book also includes a technology overview of different aspects of Web Services. As a result, Lai manages to marry both the business and the technology aspects in one comprehensive guide to Web services. There are break-out sections in At a Glance (summary section at the beginning of each chapter), Analyst's View (tips and hints for technology implementation, risks, pitfalls) and Best Practices (design patterns or best practices from industry experience).

As an aid to readers of J2EE Platform Web Services , we have established an FTP site for the book from which readers can download code, binaries, and related resources. Links to the principle directories on the FTP site and explanatory notes follow.

/src These subdirectories contain all source binaries used in the book for convenience. Since some of the packages may be outdated or unsupported, the binaries are included here.

/labs This subdirectory contains all lab exercises, and program excerpts.

/unix and /windows This subdirectories contain Chapter 8 case study source codes for Unix and Windows platform respectively. They are basically identical, except that the file locations of the sample_soap_keystore are different. Unix version points to /opt/myFX/requester but Windows version points to c:/opt/myFX/requester.

/setup This subdirectory contains all setup files, libraries for JWSDP and Axis. I've combined all jar files from various downloads/packages to save configuration time. This directory contains all jar files and configuration files that are necessary to deploy in the demo environment. Users of the book can follow the instructions in the Appendix C to download and configure. But these files are placed here for convenience.

/others This subdirectory contains a set of self-paced tutorial materials. It includes Appendix A resources (URLs) [ Ed. Note —see also the links page on this site] and a set of slides that summarizes each chapter. These slides are suitable for self-paced training in conjunction with the hands-on lab exercises.

Remarks

All subdirectories are zipped in a jar file with a shorter file name. They contain the same information as the child subdirectories. They are zipped for easy portability across machines and platforms. Jar files can be opened and unzipped using "jar -xvf <zipped files>" on Unix platform, or dragging them to Winzip.

The necessary jar files and program sources (e.g. under /unix) are now zipped for Solaris OE for convenience. These files can be extracted by "jar -xvf <zipped files> in the designated directories.

Foreword

Untitled Document

This book is about big ideas and fine details--the possible and the practical. Amid thehype surrounding Web services, the central question is this: When will we get there?The answer, as you'll see in the following pages, is that we're already there--andstill have a long way to go.

By now, the vision is almost universal: Emerging standards will increase the Internet'sability to deliver exactly what we need, precisely when we need it.

Indeed, the conveniences are fun to imagine: Your car's navigation system checkingyour calendar to see where you want to go next and showing you the best way toget through traffic. Your flight delay triggering a change in your dinner reservation andan instant notification on your wireless phone or pager.

In this book, that vision of the future is at once tempered and validated with examplesof present-day projects. In other words, nirvana may be a ways off, but companiesare already deploying less complex Web services to eliminate steps and lowercosts.

This is a book for true practitioners. By that I mean not the dilettantes but the doers.It's for those interested in designing and implementing Web services now--andpreparing for new opportunities on the horizon.

At Sun Microsystems, we believe that Web services are only partly about technology.The real starting point is identifying existing resources and mapping them to thedifferent communities you deal with day to day--customers, partners, suppliers, yourown employees.

Once you know who needs access to what, you'll have a clear indication of the kindsof services you should offer--to boost employee productivity, streamline the supplychain, or personalize your marketing efforts. Then it's simply a matter of prioritizing:

Which services have the most value to your constituents? Which offer you the bestpayback?

This book can help you turn your vision into a reality.

--Jonathan Schwartz, Executive Vice President, Software, Sun Microsystems, Inc.
