Visit the New Web Services Interoperability Home!
Today sees the launch of a new home on MSDN for Web Services Interoperability and Integration. This site includes features and articles and recommendations for acheiving interoperability and integration using Web Services.
The site launches with three new articles, as part of a Web Services Interoperability Guidance (WSIG) series:
- Recommendations for Web Services Interoperability between .NET Fx 1.1 and IBM WebSphere 5.1.2
- Recommendations for Web Services Interoperability between .NET Fx 1.1 and BEA WebLogic 8.1.3
- WS-Security interoperability between WSE 2.0 and Sun's JWSDP 1.4.
I'm most excited about the last article as I believe it's one of the first to demonstrate OASIS WSS 1.0 interoperability between vendors. The sample code included covers a step by step guide for using X509 certs to both sign and encrypt messages between the two, and is testament to how Microsoft and Sun have adopted the WS-Security standards.
We have some great content lined up for the next 12 months - interoperability with more platforms, WSE 2.0 custom transports, Web Services integration for mainframes and much more. At the same time, I'd love to hear the topics and features that you would also like to see here...
