Book Description
This book will show you how to create high-quality Web Services using ASP.NET. It describes the standards that are core to the Web Services architecture and examines how these standards are integrated into ASP.NET. The processes involved in building and consuming Web Services are discussed along with in-depth code examples. The book concludes with three case studies, each examining a different application of Web Services, and presenting a complete solution.
This book covers:
* Building and consuming Web Services in ASP.NET * Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) * Web Services Description Language (WSDL) * Discovering Web Services with UDDI * Exposing data sources through Web Services * Performance techniques * Securing Web Services * Transactional Web Services * .NET My Services (Hailstorm)
The code in this book is presented in C#. Full Visual Basic .NET versions of all code samples and case studies are available along with C# downloads on the Wrox website.

Customer Reviews & Comments
This is by far one of the best books on implementig Web Services in ASP .NET and the reason is simple: it addresses and provides examples on how to deal with inherent Web Services issues such as security and state management. In most other web services books I've read the chapters about security (if any) simply say it is an issue and talk about general concepts about security. This book is an exception to that. The examples on this book will teach you: * How to use SOAP headers for authentication. * How to map Windows accounts to impersonate users. * How to enable session management for persisting state across different Web service methods. Perhaps one of the big reasons I also liked the book is because the examples where in C#, whereas most other ASP .NET books use VB.NET by default. It'd be nice to see a second edition of this book covering examples on how to use the WS-Security standard using the recently released Microsoft Web Services Development Kit (WSDK).
