The Publisher writes:

This book will discuss what Web Services are, how are they important in enterprise computing today and the various standards and programming models to building Web Services using PHP.

Web Services is a new paradigm that has evolved with time. With successful demonstration of proof of concept, Web Services are gradually moving towards occupying an important space in enterprise computing. In this book, we will discuss the consumption, development and deployment, description, discovery and security of Web Services in conjunction with the PHP programming model for Web services.

This book is developed keeping in mind two main audiences:

The first and major audience consists of programmers that would like to learn how to consume and deploy Web Services using PHP, HTTP as a transport mechanism, and SOAP as the messaging format

The second audience consists of readers that want to learn how to integrate and interoperate PHP applications with existing and new applications written on other platforms. These platforms consist of .NET (MS .NET, Rotor and Mono), Perl, Python and Java
