An effective Web service requires awareness of many new, as well as some existing technologies. This presentation will cover the core technologies in detail, including SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI - and how to leverage industry standards such as J2EE^(TM) and XML. In addition you will learn the fundamental skills needed to produce, deploy, and consume a web service. Topics include how to build a web service, expose it via SOAP, describe it via WSDL, register it via UDDI and finally discover a web service and invoke it using a SOAP client. Deploy all of your web services into a standard J2EE application server such as SilverStream Application Server, WebSphere, or WebLogic. About the speaker: Lee Guthrie is a Technical Account Manager at SilverStream Software. He is currently involved in Web Service enablement and XML integration projects involving legacy systems.
