This book shows you how easy it is to create and use Web Services with IBM(R) Rational Application Developer or Web Developer, and WebSphere Application Server. Intended for novice to intermediate Java programmers, Developing Web Services for Web Applications teaches users how to create Web Services, deploy Web Services to a server, and create client applications that use Web Services. Each chapter of the book teaches a key Web Service concept and takes you on a detailed, guided tour for creating or using a particular Web Service. Even if you're completely new to Web Services, by the time you finish the lessons in this book, you'll have all the skills needed to create useful Java programs with Web Services. Using the "guided tour" approach, the book comes with practical step-by-step instructions and numerous screen captures, making it easy to follow along. While most books teach how to use either a development tool or a particular technology, Developing Web Services for Web Applications combines learning about Web Services with using Rational Developer tools. Each chapter develops a complete Web Service and/or application, with sample code and solution files provided on the accompanying CD-ROM. Also included in each chapter are additional exercises to help reinforce the concepts covered in that chapter. By the end of the tour, you'll be able to use Rational Developer tools to build your own Web Services, and you'll understand why Web Services are gaining popularity as a way to provide services across the Internet. Developing Web Services for Web Applications: - Is perfect for all skill levels, from those taking their first steps to those looking to explore more advanced topics - Teaches you Web Services concepts and terminology as you learn how to use the Rational Developer tools - Shows you how to create, deploy, publish, and use Web Services - Explores troubleshooting, using relational databases, using JavaServer Faces Web applications, adding security features, and much more Contents: Introduction Chapter 1: Creating your first Web service and Web application Chapter 2: Deploying and publishing your Web service Chapter 3: Discovering Web services Chapter 4: Handling Web service errors Chapter 5: Using databases, part 1 Chapter 6: Using databases, part 2 Chapter 7: Using Web services with JavaServer Faces, part 1 Chapter 8: Using Web services with JavaServer Faces, part 2 Chapter 9: Securing Web services, part 1 Chapter 10: Securing Web services, part 2 Appendix A: Installing WebSphere Express Index

IBM® Rational® Application Developer for WebSphere® Software V7.0 (for short, Rational Application Developer) is the full function Eclipse 3.2 based development platform for developing JavaTM 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SETM ) and Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EETM ) applications with a focus on applications to be deployed to IBM WebSphere Application Server and IBM WebSphere Portal. Rational Application Developer provides integrated development tools for all development roles, including Web developers, Java developers, business analysts, architects, and enterprise programmers. Rational Application Developer is part of the IBM Rational Software Delivery Platform (SDP), which contains products in four life cycle categories: - Architecture management, which includes integrated development environments (Application Developer is here) - Change and release management - Process and portfolio management - Quality management This IBM Redbooks® publication is a programming guide that highlights the features and tooling included with Rational Application Developer V7.0. Many of the chapters provide working examples that demonstrate how to use the tooling to develop applications, as well as achieve the benefits of visual and rapid application development. This publication is an update of Rational Application Developer V6 Programming Guide, SG24-6449. This book consists of six parts: - Introduction to Rational Application Developer - Develop applications - Test and debug applications - Deploy and profile applications - Team development - Appendixes

IBM Rational Application Developer is a very important tool for developers, but it is also a complex product. An Introduction to IBM Rational Application Developer, A Guided Tour is designed to jumpstart the learning process with its focus on interactive hands-on learning through a wide variety of useful, practical, end-to-end tutorials. Hands-on exercises and in-depth explanations form chapter "modules" within the book, thereby providing a complete step-by-step guide to each specific topic while allowing readers to pick and choose which tutorials they want (or need) to study without necessarily going in chapter order. And, because of its modular structure, each tutorial's sample code is independent of any earlier tutorials, freeing readers to skip from tutorial to tutorial, based on their specific knowledge requirements. Because of this design, this book continues to be a useful reference as a reader's "need to know" increases. Using this book's method, readers quickly learn IBM Rational Application Developer--regardless of their previous level of experience or inexperience. For beginners, there are tutorials that teach how to create Web, EJB, JMS, and Web Services applications using Rational Application Developer. For the more advanced readers, there are tutorials on security, publishing, testing, team development, profiling, and logging. Written to appeal to as broad an audience as possible, the tutorials run on common databases, including IBM Cloudscape, IBM DB2(R) Universal Database, Microsoft(R) SQL Server, Sybase(R) Enterprise Systems, and Oracle(R) Database.

Cloud computing provides companies with many capabilities to meet their business needs but can also mean that a hybrid architecture is created that includes on-premise systems and the cloud. Integration is needed to bridge the gap between the on-premise existing systems and the new cloud applications, platform, and infrastructure. IBM® WebSphere® Cast Iron® meets the challenge of integrating cloud applications with on-premise systems, cloud applications-to-cloud applications, and on-premise to on-premise applications. It contains a graphical development environment that provides built-in connectivity to many cloud and on-premise applications and reusable solution templates that can be downloaded from a solution repository. The integration solutions that are created can then run on either an on-premise integration appliance or the multi-tenant WebSphere Cast Iron Live cloud service. This IBM Redbooks® publication is intended for application integrators, integration designers, and administrators evaluating or already using IBM WebSphere Cast Iron. Executives, leaders, and architects who are looking for a way to integrate cloud applications with their on-premise applications are also shown how WebSphere Cast Iron can help to resolve their integration challenges. The book helps you gain an understanding of Cast Iron and explains how to integrate cloud and on-premise applications quickly and simply. It gives a detailed introduction to the development tool and the administration interfaces and how they are used. It also discusses security, high availability, and re-usability. The book also includes three detailed scenarios covering real-world implementations of a Cast Iron Integration Solution.
