The core idea behind Real World Web
Services is simple: after years of hype, what are
the major players really doing with web services? Standard
bodies may wrangle and platform vendors may preach, but at
the end of the day what are the technologies that are
actually in use, and how can developers incorporate them
into their own applications? Those are the answers
Real World Web Services delivers. It's
a field guide to the wild and wooly world of non-trivial
deployed web services.
