These specifications do not discuss how these technologies might be bound to a particular programming language such as Java. As a result, a plethora of industry technologies that facilitate Java/web service integration have been proposed.
This book introduces the basics of SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI, and then discusses some of the different Java technologies available for using each of these platforms within a Java program. The technologies we’ve chosen range from open source initiatives, such as the Apache project, to big-ticket commercial packages. One reason for touching on so many different packages is that the web services story is still developing; a number of important standards are still in flux, and vendors are providing their own solutions to these problems.
