Applied Soa: Service-Oriented Architecture and Design Strategies

by Michael Rosen, Boris Lublinsky, Kevin T. Smith

This book will begin where many high-level books end, offering the reader a practical guide for applying design strategies to service-oriented applications. The book starts by discussing the expected benefits of SOA and the architectural principles needed to create successful applications. Then, we will provide an overview of the process for designing services and service-oriented applications. Each major step of the process will be followed with a chapter that describes the detailed process and principles for that step, with handy tips and techniques for applying them. Throughout the book, we will demonstrate the process with extensive examples. Finally, the book concludes with two different, complete, end-to-end case studies.

This is an awesome book about Service-oriented Architecture. It really let one get in to it in a smooth way, understanding the basics, the foundamentals, and so on.

Very good presentation of SOA, like the broader perspective, broader than most soa books.
