Web Services Patterns - by Paul B Monday (Paperback)

About the Book

This guide describes the architectural patterns that guide developers through design patterns (service implementation and usage) and illustrates different ways in which Web services can and will be used. Java is used in all examples.

Book Synopsis

* Gives practical advice and education as to common scenarios and solutions that developers encounter and create when using Web services. * Stresses the computing model and the system structure that results from Web services, not just how to create them. * Design pattern nature of the book is stressed, but practical Web service implementations are also given as a way to show how Web services differ from their object-oriented design pattern cousins.
