JavaOne 2006 Keynote WSIT Demo

A new sample is added to WSIT samples that shows an enterprise Web service enabling integration both within and across boundaries. This sample demonstrates a price quotation service that provides list price to clients based on the product identifiers. The client makes a request to a Retail Quote Service (RQS)  which then communicates with multiple Wholesale Quote Service (WQS) to get the best price and returns that to the client. In the first version of this sample, the client and all the service endpoints (RQS + 2 WQS) are built and deployed using WSIT. A later version of the sample will replace one of the WQS to be built and deployed using Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) and also have a WCF client, in addition to WSIT client, invoking the RQS.

The sample demonstrates secure reliable communication between RQS and two WQS. It also demonstrates secure MTOM between the client and RQS. A picture is worth a thousand pictures and so this graphical representation should help visualize.

This sample was demonstrated in JavaOne 2006 keynote and used as the basis of my JavaOne 2006 technical session (TS-5540). In case, you need more technical details, the StarOffice version of slide has speaker notes and animation.

Instructions to check out the sample

This sample can be checked out using the instructions given here. These instructions will retrieve WSIT sources along with the sample sources as both are required to build, run and deploy the sample. The sample exists in wsit/wsit/samples/pricequote directory. Once checked out, follow the instructions in readme.html in the pricequote directory to build and deploy the sample on GlassFish.
