This book is not just another generic set of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) best practices with only general recommendations and advice: instead it’s a unique cookbook that shows you how SOA applications are built using best practices that are proven in 10 real-world scenarios.

The book consists of three sections. The first two sections will inspire you. They showcase real-life projects on BPEL-based integration and development of composite applications. You’ll see that SOA is a reality today, learn what successful implementations are like, and how SOA can work for you right now. It will encourage you to take a plunge into the world of services and test-drive SOA yourself. If you are already in the middle of an SOA implementation, these sections will offer you fresh insight into your current approach, help you to deal with specific business challenges, and make sure what you do is in line with the best practice.

The third section will equip you with BPEL techniques to build better SOA applications. These techniques represent the practical implementation of best practice, with code snippets ranging from development to administration of an SOA application. They are generic enough to be applied in any of your existing projects yet specific enough to enable you reap the full benefits from your SOA implementation.
Customer Review: Best Practices for SOA Integration on the Money
The BPEL Cookbook is an excellent practical guide to real-world SOA integration issues. It is not a “Learn BPEL” book, but rather the next step once you learn how to develop in BPEL. It addresses various types of issues that one needs to consider when developing BPEL processes. Chapter 3, “Building the Service Value Chain”, addresses the core of building a SOA architecture that the business process must be standardized and documented. While a couple of chapters are Oracle BPEL centric, the rest of the chapters address generic issues of any BPEL implementation. In particular, Reliable Messaging, Web Services Invocation Framework (WSIF), building dynamic BPEL processes, and centralizing logging and error handling. For those using Oracle BPEL, chapter 5 shows how to use the Worklist API to build a rich Internet application. And chapter 2 shows how to integrate PeopleSoft CRM with Oracle eBusiness Suite.

The book talks about BPEL in a way expecting that your a BPEL GURU, I brought this book to learn BPEL, not to hear how other people used it. Buy Now!

Web Engineering and Applications presents a rigorous approach to the development of Web applications, covering Web development concepts, methods, tools and techniques. It highlights the requirements, design and security aspects of Web engineering. On the application front, the book demonstrates how to search data and images from the Web. As modern Web applications are fully fledged, complex software systems, their development must be thorough and systematic in order to be successful. This book also covers the processes and techniques employed to find requirements, design, and develop Web applications, and includes the best practices employed in the industries. The book is ideal for undergraduate and graduate students on Web-focused or Software Engineering courses, as well as Web software developers, Web designers and Web project managers. Buy Now!
