{"product_id":"9781847190116","title":"SOA Approach to Integration: XML, Web services, ESB, and BPEL in real-world SOA projects","description":"\u003cb\u003eIn Detail\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntegration of applications within a business and between different businesses is becoming more and more important. The needs for up-to-date information that is accessible from almost everywhere and developing e-business solutions, particularly business to business, require that developers find solutions for integrating diverse, heterogeneous applications, developed in different architectures and programming languages and on different platforms. They have to do this quickly and cost effectively, but still preserve the architecture and deliver robust solutions that are maintainable over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntegration is a difficult task. This book focuses on the SOA approach to integration of existing (legacy) applications and newly developed solutions, using modern technologies, particularly web services, XML, ESB, and BPEL. The book shows how to define SOA for integration, what integration patterns to use, which technologies to use, and how to best integrate existing applications with modern e-business solutions. It also shows how to develop web services and BPEL processes, and how to process and manage XML documents from the JEE and .NET platforms. Finally, it also explains how to integrate both platforms using web services and ESBs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book shows how to define SOA integration architecture, what technologies to use, and how to best integrate existing applications with modern e-business solutions. The book also shows how to develop web services, how to process and manage XML documents from JEE and .NET platforms, and how to use ESBs and BPEL executable business processes within SOA architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApproach\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter explaining the challenges, levels, and strategies of integration the book explains SOA, web services, and the Enterprise Services Bus before covering processing XML and web services on the .Net and JEE platforms in more detail. Then it covers BEPL and demonstrates service composition into business processes with a realistic, although simple example BPEL process. Finally it shows how ESB provides a concrete infrastructure for SOA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho this book is for\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is for architects and senior developers who are responsible for setting up SOA for integration for applications within the enterprise (intra-enterprise integration) and applications across enterprises (inter-enterprise integration or B2B).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47136071876848,"sku":"9781847190116","price":29.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781847190116_p0.jpg?v=1763748171","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781847190116","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
