This book will provide the first in-depth look at AXIS, which is the new name for Apache SOAP – the most widely used Java implementation of SOAP. The rapid uptake of SOAP based web services has lead to the continuous and rapid development of the SOAP specification – putting pressure on the various implementations to keep up. AXIS will address the performance issues inherent in Apache-SOAP and create a new architecture, which will be more extensible. The book starts with an introduction to AXIS and web services, highlighting the goals of the Apache AXIS project and its current status. The key to exploiting the power of AXIS is in understanding its architecture and how to extend it. This book will show you how to do this by writing your own custom message handlers. Then it moves on to using the new parts of the SOAP specification AXIS implements and Java 2 Enterprise Edition integration. All this builds towards a full case study based around a supply chain application for a car manufacturer and its dealers. This book Explain what AXIS is and why it's neededLook at the Architecture of AXIS in detailLShow how to extend the capabilities of AXIS with custom handlersDemonstrate the new advanced SOAP capabilities that AXIS providesHow to build a full supply chain solution based on AXISInteroperability with Microsoft Client implementationsFinally, we'll look at what the future holds for AXIS and SOAP

Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) has been the driving force behind application and information system development of the last few years. The Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) provides an ideal environment in which to integrate different domains, architectures, and technologies to create available, scalable, and secure enterprise information systems. This book presents a methodology and process to create an integrated information infrastructure based on the J2EE platform, using technologies such as XML, EJB, JMS, CORBA, RMI-IIOP and the J2EE Connector Architecture. This infrastructure provides an architecture that facilitates integration at the data, component, and application levels. Through the use of component wrappers and virtual components, existing applications can be replaced and new developments seamlessly integrated into the integrated architecture. The book takes you through the various stages in the integration process, from design and analysis, through integration of data, via integration of components and applications, to the integration of the user interface. At each stage the book discusses the relevant Java technologies that enable a common integration platform and how to employ them to this purpose. This book
