ABSTRACT:
Web services refer to technologies that standardize the communication of applications in order
to connect systems, business partners, and customers cost-effectively through the World Wide Web. This project is concerned with demonstration two things: Interoperability between Java and C# and integrating data in a University Information System.
Web Services have evolved from other distributed technologies, which include Java RMI, CORBA, and DCOM, but their specification deficiencies with respect to complete platform and programming language independence, and interoperability are creating a need for a more suitable solution. Web Services offer to provide such a solution by inheriting the beneficial traits of its predecessors, avoiding the negative aspects associated with its predecessors, which include tight coupling specifications, potential for firewall blocking, long development times, and higher costs.
The web technology used in this project are SOAP , WSDL, XML and UDDI. These four are the SOAP web technology used in developing a SOAP web service. The Web services are programmed in Java are consumed by a C# Client Application. This demonstrates interoperability between Java and C#.
