Full Description
With the help of many examples, the book explains how to build Web Services with PHP, combine them into SOAs with WS-BPEL, and then deploy composite WS-BPEL-based solutions to the ActiveBPEL engine. The examples in this book are presented in a way that anyone can understand and apply. This book is suitable for anyone who wants to start building SOA applications using powerful tools available free of charge. It also will be useful for PHP developers willing to move towards Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Readers need only a basic knowledge of SOA, BPEL, and Web Services; even a total beginner will be able to follow the examples, provided the required software components are installed on his or her computer. More experienced readers might use this book as a reference, focusing only on the chapters of interest.
Contents
Chapter 1 provides an overview of the service-oriented technologies used throughout the book, explaining how these technologies can be utilized in a complementary way. Chapter 2 explains how to use the PHP SOAP extension when building Web Services to be then utilized within SOA applications. Chapter 3 provides several examples on using the two most popular databases today MySQL and Oracle, when building data-centric Web Services with PHP. It also explains how to move key underlying logic of a Web Service into the database. Chapter 4 discusses different ways in which you can combine a set of fine-grained services built with PHP into a composition, without defining an orchestration process. It also discusses how to secure PHP Web Services. Chapter 5 gets to the heart of the matter, explaining how to combine Web Services into composite solutions with the help of WS-BPEL orchestration language. It also discusses how to deploy WS-BPEL process services to ActiveBPEL open-source engine. Chapter 6 explains in detail how to compose service-oriented solutions with ActiveBPEL Designer a free, fully-functional, graphical tool for WS-BPEL process design, debugging, and simulation. Chapter 7 looks at concurrency, synchronization and asynchronous communication in WS-BPEL. The main focus of this chapter is on how to implement parallel processing of activities within a WS-BPEL process. It also discusses asynchronous interactions between WS-BPEL processes. The Appendix walks through the steps needed to install and configure the software components required to follow the book examples.
