  • Demystifying SAML by Harold Lockhart   - [Clicks: 74]
    As more and more systems are linked through Web services, portals, and integrated applications, the need for a standard that allows security information to be shared and exchanged becomes more and more apparent. Security Assertion Markup Language, or SAML, provides a robust, yet extensible set of data formats to communicate identity and authentication information in a variety of environments. Identity Federation, a key concept driving the need for and the definition of SAML, means using information from multiple, independently administered sources to implement security services such as authorization. Along with Single Sign-on (SSO), SAML is a requirement for modern networked environments.

  • Web services development patterns by Greg Flurry, Manish Modh   - [Clicks: 92]
    Web services have become a standard way of implementing Service Oriented Architectures. Developers have used many patterns of developing these Web services, but these patterns have not been well-defined or discussed. This article describes these development patterns and discusses their advantages and disadvantages in terms of tooling support and results. The analysis is based on real-world experience in developing customer solutions.

  • Implementing WS-Security with Java and WSS4J by Jeff Hanson   - [Clicks: 136]
    Many organizations have now implemented solutions based on the promise of Web services, exposing those services over the Internet to enjoy maximum exposure -- which then leaves them with the dilemma of securing their services to protect data and other resources. Find out how to use Java and Apache's Web Services Security for Java (WSS4J) framework to secure your Web services.

  • WS-Security in the Enterprise, Part 2: The Framework by Denis Pilipchuk   - [Clicks: 85]
    This is the second article in this series about implementing and using WS-Security-based protection in enterprise environments. The first article reviewed existing setups and gaps, and proposed plans for development of a WSSE Toolkit, which is intended to address some of those gaps. This article introduces the framework of the proposed WSSE Toolkit (a subset of current project's source is also available for download), and explains a high-level mapping of WSSE features to the object-oriented realms of the Java language.

  • WS-Security in the Enterprise, Part 1: Problem Introduction by Denis Pilipchuk   - [Clicks: 62]
    This article begins a series related to the details of implementing and using Web Services (WS) Security-based protection in enterprise environments. Such environments are characterized, among other things, by the presence of access control mechanisms protecting the company's web services. Recommendations and designs in this series are based mostly on first-hand development experiences and customer issues from working on one of such pioneering system for protecting web services (TransactionMinder). However, the ideas and design are intentionally kept general in nature so that they are applicable to other comparable systems as well.

  • Building Web Services with User-Defined Data Types by Nandhini Arumugam   - [Clicks: 59]
    In a real-world scenario, Web services do not always use primitive data types. The real-world objects may be made of complex, user-defined data types. This article explains in detail the procedure for creating and exposing a Web service with user-defined data types deployed in a Weblogic SOAP container on a BEA Weblogic Server 8.x application server.

  • Boost application development with Amazon Web Services, Part 1 by Eric Giguere   - [Clicks: 64]
    This tutorial provides an overview of Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS exposes raw product information and key parts of Amazon.com technology to third-party developers for use in their applications. After describing how AWS works in general, the tutorial focuses on the main AWS service, called the Amazon E-Commerce Service (ECS). As part of this tutorial, you will develop a small Web application that uses ECS to display book and music information.
