Customer Rating: 

The author's knowledge is unbelievable. I can't imagine how one person could know a subject so deeply.

The tough part of SOA is that there are so many ways to do it: the tip of the iceberg is rpc or document, literal or encoded, wrapped or bare. And the deeper you get, the more architectural decisions there are e.g., java first or contract first, or "in the middle." Hewitt gives you exactly the perspective you need to make these decisions.

He writes beautifully, too.

Great book.

Simple to understand and readable. I like the book ir recommend it to the software development community. The introduction is great and the material is well structured i also think that the book should become a text book for graduate students

I am working on my very first web service project and am using WebLogic 10.3. The Oracle site has good tutorial on how to use the wsdlc, wsgen, clientgen to generate web service. But I need someone/something to guide me when I have some little questions. Like how to write wsdl so the operation throws exception; what tools to monitor SOAP traffic...etc. And this book has already answered several of my questions and has already paid for itself.

Customer Rating: 

This book covers a lot of SOA, but it makes it in a way that is very boring and doesn't get to the point (any point) as fasta as someone would like.
Bottomline, this is a good book for reference but not for learning how to make a SOA from scratch

Customer Rating: 

Excelente trabajo el de Hewitt. El primer capitulo puede ser suficiente para pagar el precio. Cualquier empresa/arquitecto con una iniciativa SOA debe leer este libro.
Completamente recomendado.
