Beyond WSE 2.0: Looking Ahead to Indigo
Jeffrey Hasan · Apress eBooks · 2004
Today, Web Services Enhancements (WSE) 2.0 is the easiest way to implement selected WS-Specifications in your .NET Web services and service-oriented applications. WSE 2.0 provides developer support for building service-oriented applications and infrastructure support for running them. Web services and service-oriented applications require a lot of support to build and run. Developers require classes that make it easier to work with messages without having to interact with the raw SOAP. In addition, they require infrastructure support to make it easier to run service-oriented applications. WSE 2.0 provides all of these levels of support by providing • A rich class framework for implementing important WS-Specifications such as WS-Security and WS-Addressing. • Infrastructure support, in the form of the WSE pipeline, which automatically intercepts and processes incoming and outgoing SOAP messages. • Infrastructure support for common service requirements, such as policy verification (using WS-Policy). For example, WSE 2.0 automatically processes XML-based policy framework files, which saves you from needing to write additional processing code in both the service and the client. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
