Summary
The term "Service-Oriented Architecture" is very popular these days, but what does it mean? Is SOA just an abbreviation for Same Old Architecture? And if it isn't, where does the old architecture fit in?
In this session, we will talk about SOA's and Web services in a pragmatic fashion. We will talk about the proper place of a Web service within an application architecture, both from the client and the server perspective. And we will talk about the value of SOAP vs REST, and the multitude of WS-* specifications that are out there: what do they add?
