Title: Executive's Guide to Web Services (SOA, Service-Oriented Architecture)
Description: "The premise of the Executive's Guide to Web Services is that the adoption of Web services will not be based on the desire to implement a "new technology," but rather on the technology's ability to deliver strategic business value. The authors untangle the maze of standards, concepts, and terminology that blur Web services, arming the reader with enabling concepts and providing a solid foundation and reference text with which to unleash untapped business potential." "Eric Marks and Mark Werrell summarize current Web services vendors, including market positioning and capabilities of BEA Systems, IBM's "Services on Demand," Microsoft's ".Net," Oracle's "Oracle Dynamic Services," and Sun Microsystems' "Sun ONE." They explain how business and IT strategies can accommodate Web services, providing specific industry examples, solutions, and benefits."--BOOK JACKET.
