Free One-Day Web Services Tutorials by SYS-CON Education

The conference will present two Web Services one-day tutorials.

The first tutorial, entitled, "Architecting a J2EE Web Services Infrastructure," will be presented by distinguished Oracle faculty. With Web services adoption well underway, developers and architects are facing the next set of questions surrounding the delivery of real-world Web services built on evolving technologies and standards. The discussion points can seem extensive but they are surprisingly manageable once understood: interoperability, quality of service, back-end integration, development process, service delivery, and more. This one-day tutorial will help attendees understand the breadth to which Web services has permeated the typical IT infrastructure, and help provide a framework for better understanding what should be considered when building a J2EE Web services infrastructure.

The second tutorial, entitled, "Detecting and Preventing Errors in Web Services," will be presented by distinguished Parasoft faculty. This one-day tutorial demonstrates practices that improve Web service reliability and interoperability. The session discusses error prevention and detection, focusing on error quality control from the earliest phases of the development process. The session pinpoints areas that are common stumbling blocks, including the layers in which errors can surface, errors stemming from services being reused in unknown environments, security problems, and interoperability issues. You will be provided with an in-depth look at practices that help you engineer quality from the ground up. Specific techniques discussed include Design by Contract, defensive coding, coding standard enforcement, unit testing, module testing, functional testing, client testing, server testing, load testing, and interoperability testing. Each time a practice is introduced, the speaker will demonstrate how it can be applied to a sample Java-based Web service.

Another feature of this week's conference in San Jose will be SYS-CON Media's unveiling of a 30-page sneak preview issue of its latest i-technology publication, .NET Developer's Journal.

"This new magazine, with its developer focus, is yet another tangible indication of the systematic momentum among developers that the .NET Framework is gathering," said John Montgomery, group product manager of Microsoft's .NET Framework.

".NET Developer's Journal will be focusing on all aspects of the .NET infrastructure, enabling technologies, business process management, and collaborative business," said Jeremy Geelan, editorial director of SYS-CON Media. "Our goal is to provide accurate, insightful information to the information technologist working with .NET, from developer to CIO- and to be the number one source for .NET information."

"Initial market projection for .NET developers by February 2003 is 2.5 million," said Derek Ferguson, world-renowned author, speaker, technology evangelist, and the editor-in-chief of .NET Developer's Journal, "With the i-technology industry again on the cusp of a major shift in the way it operates, it has come as little surprise to developers that Microsoft Corporation is once again in the vanguard of change, with its comprehensive .NET initiative."
