Web Services and SOA Architecture Fundamental
（更多资料和具体参加方法）
The course is designed to teach students the key concepts, product architecture, programming model, and capabilities of products that have been identified for use in the SOA and BPM project and pass the IBM Certification Test 000-669.
This course covers concepts such as service-oriented architecture (SOA), Service Component Architecture (SCA), and business event processing, and includes WebSphere products such as WebSphere Process Server, WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, WebSphere Application Server, and WebSphere Service Repository and Registry (WSRR).
The course begins by providing students with an overview of service-oriented architecture (SOA). Students then learn the basic concepts and terminology of Service Component Architecture (SCA), which is the component model for the assembly and deployment of applications running on the IBM WebSphere Process Server run time.
Students learn how to develop and deploy applications to a federated architecture on the WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment run time. Students also learn how WebSphere Process Server enables business integration applications to define business logic and processes based on web services, Business Process Execution Language (BPEL), and business rules.
WebSphere Service Registry and Repository enables you to get the most business value from your SOA by facilitating the storage, access and management of service metadata so that services can be easily selected, invoked, governed and reused. This course discuss WebSphere Service Registry and Repository (WSRR) integration with ESB solutions.
In this course, students learn about the role of Web services in service-oriented architectures (SOA) and the enterprise, in addition to the technologies that are typically used in Web services. Students start by learning about the components of Web Services Description Language (WSDL) documents and SOAP messages in Web services. Students then learn how to use IBM Rational Application Developer V7.5 to create Web services using the Web service wizards, how to debug and monitor Web services using the TCP/IP monitor, and how to configure policies for Web service management. The course also covers how to package and deploy Java EE 5 Web services to IBM WebSphere Application Server V7. Throughout the course, students perform hands-on exercises that build their practical knowledge working with Rational Application Developer V7.5 and WebSphere Application Server V7 to build, deploy, debug, and monitor Web services.
