This book describes the lifecycle of activities for IT projects -design,development, deployment and management. The concepts are peppered withlessons learned from a real implementation of web services at Hewlett-Packardwith external business partners. Those who want to go beyond understandingconcepts and actually implement web services will find this book a greatreference. Special attention is given to topics one would encounter in largeenterprises -- business relevance, prototyping, methodologies, tying to existinginfrastructure, testing and manageability.
