Java EE and .NET Interoperability
by Marina Fisher, Ray Lai, Sonu Sharma and Laurence Moroney

648 pages
ISBN 0131472232

Evolving Web services standards and technologies offer limited interoperability when it comes to security, management, and other important application characteristics. Successful interoperability solutions require comprehensive integration strategies that go beyond simple connections. The capability to mitigate security and reliability risks and transactional support is critical to interoperability.

The experienced authors outline strategies, approaches, and best practices, including messaging, Web services, and integration-related frameworks and patterns. The book also introduces readers to Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), the building block for scalable and reliable enterprise integration solutions.

This indispensable book provides the Java EE and .NET developer community with multiple strategies to integrate between Java EE and .NET platforms that save developers time and effort. Applying proven interoperability solutions significantly reduces the application development cycle. Coverage includes:

  • Effective Java EE–.NET integration strategies and best practices
  • Detailed enterprise coverage, as well as standalone Java EE component integration with .NET
  • SOA as a building block for Java EE–.NET interoperability
  • Interoperability security issues and risk mitigation
