.NET, J2EE, and Beyond
The Web services battle lines are shaping up along two fronts:
Microsoft on one side with its .NET initiative centered around Microsoft server technology,
Sun on the other side with Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) architecture,
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI), and Web Services Definition Language (WSDL),
- provide transport, discovery, and connections, they do not address other critical requirements for the electronic enterprise:
SOAP, Web Services, and E-Commerce
SOAP opens up new options for distributed computing.
The widespread use of SOAP as a distributed protocol for communicating across the Web and the emergence of Web services as a technology that adds structure to the open space of the Web have added a new dimension to the traditional enterprise computing model, based on middleware and application servers tied to tightly coupled networks.
