Web Service Interop between Spring and .NET
In many environments today there are multiple technology stacks and the services built on the various technologies need to be able to connect to each other. The web service standards around SOAP were defined to make this interoperability possible. In this session we will look at the web service capabilities of the .NET and Spring frameworks and ways that Microsoft and SpringSource are working together to make interoperability between the platforms easier for developers.
• Overview of Spring Web Services capabilities • Overview of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) web services capabilities • Code walkthrough of a sample application demonstrating interoperability between the two platforms
