Montvale, NJ, January 30, 2002 - SYS-CON Events, Inc. (www.sys-con.com), headquartered in Montvale, New Jersey, presented the first of their new one-day tutorial series yesterday to a sold-out crowd in Boston. The series was organized in response to developers' eagerness to plan ahead for SYS-CON's Web Services Edge 2002 East/West - International Web Services Conference & Expos, which will take place June 24-27 in New York and October 1-3 in San Jose (www.sys-con.com/WebServicesEdge2002East).
The series of one-day Web Services tutorials aimed at the Java developer community, entitled "Developing SOAP Web Services," is exclusively sponsored by Systinet Corporation (http://www.sys-con.com/education). It is designed to equip professional developers with all the tools and information they need to immediately begin creating, deploying, and using their own Web services. Expert practitioners will take an applied approach, and cover base technologies such as SOAP, WSDL, UDDI, and XML, as well as more advanced topics such as security, J2EE integration, exposing legacy systems, and integrating Web services into an existing IT infrastructure. Attendees will receive free copies of all the software used during the tutorial to create example Web Services as well as discount certificates to register for this year's Web Services Edge 2002 East or West International Web Services Conference & Expos.
Web Services Edge 2002 World Tour tutorials, produced by SYS-CON Events, grew out of the great success of a recent one-day presentation by Systinet at Web Services Edge 2001 West, held in Santa Clara, CA.
"In a recently published poll, over 65% of i-Technology managers reported that they plan to use Web services in the next year, rising to over 85% over the next two years," said Anne Thomas Manes, Systinet CTO and the featured presenter of yesterday's tutorial. "There's enormous demand for practical how-to information and tools to help developers exploit the potential of Web services." The Web Services Edge 2002 World Tour offers the prime source of knowledge in this area.
"This program is an extension of our commitment to the i-Technology professionals who are the readers of our Web Services Journal, Java Developer's Journal, and XML-Journal and the attendees of our annual international conferences and expos," said Cathy Walters, vice president of SYS-CON Events, Inc. "This tutorial series provides essential face-to-face educational venues for i-Technology professionals in and around the cities we have selected for the tour, and will help jump-start an immediate skill set for those planning to attend our 2002 International Web Services Edge East and West conferences later in the year."
