SOA in Practice: The Art of Distributed System Design » (New Edition)

Nicolai Josuttis wrote "The C++ Standard Library" and "C++ Templates" for Addison-Wesley. An experienced systems architect, he recently spent two years rolling out an SOA at a major mobile phone company. Nicolai is presenting tutorials on SOAs at a number of conferences, and has been speaking on the subject for over a year so far.

Without getting lost in theory, this enterprise-level book gives developers practical, experience-tested advice on how to solve business problems by applying service-oriented architectures (SOA).
