Drummond Group (http://www.drummondgroup.com), the trusted interoperability test lab, today announced their launch of AS4 Bootcamp. This instructor-led course enables Web services developers who are not familiar with B2B messaging standards to gain familiarity with the AS4 profile and the underlying ebMS 3.0 and WS-* specifications. Through a combination of lectures, discussions, and hands-on lab exercises, students will learn the fundamentals necessary to design and develop robust and interoperable implementations of the AS4 profile.The AS4 profile (http://www.drummondgroup.com/html-v2/as4.html) is a new Web services B2B messaging standard that simplifies and standardizes the use of Web services platforms for the secure and reliable exchange of business document payloads.
Bootcamp topics will include:
> AS4 messaging semantics,
> Web services security such as XML Digital Signatures and Encryption,
> AS4 messaging choreographies,
> Message receipts and business non-repudiation,
> Reliable messaging, and error handling/reporting.
