WA1788 Application Development with AJAX and Web Services Training and Courseware
(Coming Soon)
Next generation web applications (i.e. “Web 2.0”) are quickly becoming the standard in web application development and interface design. Additionally, enterprises are increasingly interested in creating new Web-based services as well as harnessing data from existing ones. Some even go so far as to perform enterprise mashups of data to provide knowledge workers with new insight regarding their domain of interest.
Core skill sets for modern application development now must include AJAX, XML / XHMTL, and Web services in addition to the basic web and application development skills that have been needed for so years. Not only must these skills exist in isolation, but increasingly developers are pushed to be able to integrate and combine these skills in support of web portals and mashups.
This hands-on course is aimed at developers that want to expand their skills in AJAX and XML into the Web service and enterprise mashup arena. The course assumes knowledge and experience with basic AJAX-style programming and XML document management. A brief introduction to Web services is provided, followed by detailed coverage of consuming syndication feeds and Web services via AJAX. XML content styling and data management is also covered. All concepts are reinforced through detailed, hands-on labs in a vendor-neutral context.
