Hi,

I have Visual Studio 2005 installed on my computer.

Do I need any add-on library or software to develop SOA ?

Is there any tutorial that helps to develop SOA application in .Net ?

I need support for WS-* including Addressing, Eventing, Notification. Can
this be done using VS.Net.

Kindly advice.

Regards,
Kaushal Mehta

First of all, I would dispute your terminology a little: "SOA" is not
identical to "WS-*". SOA is an architectural pattern, whereas the WS-* are
protocols that may be of use in implementing that pattern, or that may turn
out not to be of use in particular implementations of that pattern.

The ideal way to use the protocols you mentioned is to use Windows
Communication Framework. The development support for that is built into
Visual Studio 2008, and it is part of the .NET Framework 3.0 and 3.5. "3.0"
is just a set of additional libraries on top of 2.0, so there is no upgrade
issue. Also, you can use Visual Studio 2008 to develop applications
targeting .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0, or 3.5.

You may hear people mention WSE (Web Service Enhancements), but I consider
them to be obsolete and superseded by WCF, so I recommend you stay away from
them.

Hi John,

Do you work with Microsoft ? If yes, what group ?

I asked this just out of curiosity.

SOA is a concept - you can build it in any language you like.

Take a look at the Managed Services Engine
http://www.codeplex.com/servicesengine

The MSE enables SOA using an approach called Service Virtualization. Up on
the codeplex site there is a walkthrough guide that leads you in a hands-on
lab fashion through the process of creating SOA services.

The MSE is built on top of WCF so you need the .Net runtime and a copy of
sql2005 (express is fine) as the only pre-requisites

Thanks,

Thanks, but I'm not actually interested in the building of the service at
this point, I'm really just talking about the conceptual structure of the
service.
