Product Description
I would strongly recommend this book, and it gets my personal highest honor, which means it is carried in my laptop case, so I always have it. This is the *single* best WSE 2 book and it is excellent, end to end.
— Sam Gentile, Noted INETA Speaker, Microsoft MVP – .NET/C#, .NET Architect
Popular author Jeffrey Hasan will draw you into the service-oriented architecture (SOA) mindset, in preparation for the release of Indigo&emdash;the new Web services protocol and infrastructure support for SOA. Now is the time to consider SOA and to think about how to architect applications using XML messages and loosely-coupled services. With this book, you can get a head start on building SOA applications, using the .NET Framework combined with the Web Services Enhancements (WSE) 2.0 toolkit.
Web services are hot – and with the release of WSE 2.0, Microsoft developers now have a toolkit that makes it easy to implement industry-standard specifications for building secure, reliable Web services. This book provides deep insight into the newest release of the WSE toolkit: blending theory with ample C# code samples, and directly teaching you how to implement SOA solutions that are based on specifications such as WS-Security, WS-Policy, and WS-Addressing. Most .NET-based Web services are simply containers for limited RPC-style methods. This book will show you how to shift your development paradigm to create Web services that process sophisticated XML messages within a secure, service-oriented, loosely-coupled architecture. Jeff gives you the practical information you need today, while at the same time preparing you for what you will need tomorrow.Dot NET User group.

Poor writing. Poor diagrams. Poor editing. Poor typesetting. Misguided sample code. Misleading title. Inaccurate information. Life is too short to waste your time reading this book when there are so many better titles. Burned by Apress again. When am I going to learn…
Rating: 2 / 5
This book is not for who has gone through WSE2 samples shipping w/WSE2.
Rating: 3 / 5
First part of the book covers .NET web-services, second part covers WSE 2.0. OK WSE 2.0 examples.
This book has nothing to do with SOA.
Rating: 1 / 5
This is a tight, pragmatic introduction to using the new web services library in .NET. There are illustrations to guide you through but they aren’t overused. There are some step by step walkthroughs, but in general the book is about code and a little about standards. The majority of the book is about the security aspects of the standard.
I recommend this book for anyone doing web services in .NET. It’s definitely worth the look. It’s the kind of book that you can read in an afternoon and get a solid introduction to the topic.
Rating: 4 / 5
This book serves as maybe a decent reference book if that. First off, its hardly about SOA and doesn’t cover anything deep enough to really use if you are trying to get into it. The author right away breaks one of the major tenants of SOA, sharing types. If you are too lazy to search msdn or the Internet on basic .net Web Services then maybe this is a book for you.
