This course covers how to implement web services with JBoss using the most recent Java standards, JAX-WS for SOAP web services and JAX-RS for REST web services. Since it is possible to use both styles of web services, even within the same application, this course will show the student the strengths of both styles and how to properly implement both types of web services. Testing web services is also more difficult than "normal" web applications so this course covers tools and techniques used to test web services in the labs.

This course will be particularly useful for those looking to upgrade existing JAX-RPC Java web services and who want to know the different styles of web services now supported by JBoss.

  • Tell the difference between different SOAP styles (document literal, RPC literal etc.)
  • Implement a Web Service using Eclipse and JBoss.
  • Write a Web Services client using standard Java specifications.

Audience
 

This course is applicable for Architects and Developers that need to design and develop SOAP web services using JAX-WS and RESTful web services using JAX-RS.

Prerequisites
 

Experience with Java programming is required. Experience with Eclipse is useful but not required. For those that might need this Java or Eclipse experience the following course is suggested:

  • WA1278 Introduction to Java Using Eclipse

An understanding of basic web architecture and the HTTP protocol. Prior experience with RPC-style services such as Web services, Java RMI, COM objects, etc. is helpful, but not required.

Duration
