BM Redbook: Patterns for Service-Oriented Architecture and Web Services

["Chiusano Joseph" <chiusano_joseph@bah.com>]

I had the following action item from yesterday's F2F meeting: Send to
the listserv the URL for IBM's Redbook on Patterns for Service-Oriented
Architecture and Web Services. Please see [1], an updated version which
was just released yesterday.

Highlights:

- This IBM Redbook focuses on how specific IBM Patterns for e-business
can be used to start implementing solutions using the service-oriented
architecture approach;

- Guidelines are presented for applying the Patterns and
service-oriented architecture approach to a sample business scenario and
for selecting Web services technologies;

- The publication concludes with an examination of how a
service-oriented architecture can provide a step in the direction of
IBM’s e-business on-demand (eBOD) vision.

NOTE: Booz Allen's emerging XML- and Web Services-based service offering
called "EISI" (Enterprise Information and Services-Based Integration) is
intended to compete with IBM's eBOD.
