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

WordPress is much more than a blogging platform. As this practical guide clearly demonstrates, you can use WordPress to build web apps of any type—not mere content sites, but full-blown apps for specific tasks. If you have PHP experience with a smattering of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, you’ll learn how to use WordPress plugins and themes to develop fast, scalable, and secure web apps, native mobile apps, web services, and even a network of multiple WordPress sites. The authors use examples from their recently released SchoolPress app to explain concepts and techniques throughout the book. All code examples are available on GitHub. Compare WordPress with traditional app development frameworks Use themes for views, and plugins for backend functionality Get suggestions for choosing WordPress plugins—or build your own Manage user accounts and roles, and access user data Build asynchronous behaviors in your app with jQuery Develop native apps for iOS and Android, using wrappers Incorporate PHP libraries, external APIs, and web service plugins Collect payments through ecommerce and membership plugins Use techniques to speed up and scale your WordPress app

Build real-world, production-ready solutions by harnessing the powerful features of Go About This Book An easy-to-follow guide that provides everything a developer needs to know to build end-to-end web applications in Go Write interesting and clever, but simple code, and learn skills and techniques that are directly transferable to your own projects A practical approach to utilize application scaffolding to design highly scalable programs that are deeply rooted in go routines and channels Who This Book Is For This book is intended for developers who are new to Go, but have previous experience of building web applications and APIs. What You Will Learn Build a fully featured REST API to enable client-side single page apps Utilize TLS to build reliable and secure sites Learn to apply the nuances of the Go language to implement a wide range of start-up quality projects Create websites and data services capable of massive scale using Go's net/http package, exploring RESTful patterns as well as low-latency WebSocket APIs Interact with a variety of remote web services to consume capabilities ranging from authentication and authorization to a fully functioning thesaurus Explore the core syntaxes and language features that enable concurrency in Go Understand when and where to use concurrency to keep data consistent and applications non-blocking, responsive, and reliable Utilize advanced concurrency patterns and best practices to stay low-level without compromising the simplicity of Go itself In Detail Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software. It is a statically typed language with syntax loosely derived from that of C, adding garbage collection, type safety, some dynamic-typing capabilities, additional built-in types such as variable-length arrays and key-value maps, and a large standard library. This course starts with a walkthrough of the topics most critical to anyone building a new web application. Whether it's keeping your application secure, connecting to your database, enabling token-based authentication, or utilizing logic-less templates, this course has you covered. Scale, performance, and high availability lie at the heart of the projects, and the lessons learned throughout this course will arm you with everything you need to build world-class solutions. It will also take you through the history of concurrency, how Go utilizes it, how Go differs from other languages, and the features and structures of Go's concurrency core. It will make you feel comfortable designing a safe, data-consistent, and high-performance concurrent application in Go. This course is an invaluable resource to help you understand Go's powerful features to build simple, reliable, secure, and efficient web applications. Style and approach This course is a step-by-step guide, which starts off with the basics of go programming to build web applications and will gradually move on to cover intermediate and advanced topics. You will be going through this smooth transition by building interesting projects along with the authors, discussing significant options, and decisions at each stage, while keeping the programs lean, uncluttered, and as simple as possible.

This example-driven book offers a thorough introduction to Java's APIs for XML Web Services (JAX-WS) and RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS).
