Adopting Web Services will affect many processes within any organization. To throw light on the most important issues, we have commissioned Experts in the Industry to share their insights. The resultant papers cover a broad spectrum from architecture to business strategies without diverting into deep technological fashions. Each study in the collection will answer specific business challenges thrown up by Web Service architectures. Before changing, commissioning, or evaluating a Web Service initiative, all IT Managers, System Architects, Lead Developers, and Business Visionaries should study and reference this book.
