Duration: 3 Days
Get an overview of the JBoss SOA Platform (SOA-P) and learn the skills required to use the ESB in this course designed for experienced Java EE developers. You will learn the process for developing and deploying ESB services and providers, and you will enhance your ESB development skills while deploying and managing ESB services such as HTTP providers, JMS providers, transformation actions, and available built-in service actions.
Through in-class investigation and hands-on labs, you will leave the class able to design, develop, deploy, and test ESB services in accordance with SOA design principles using JBoss Developer Studio and JBoss SOA Platform.
