DEV01 Using XML Services for Web Application Development

In this session Christian Langanke shows in a sample how XML web services are accessed via SOAP in PHP, and how XSL templates are used to generate the XHTML output from XML.

In both concerns XML is the key to a highly modular application design.

As the concept of a service-oriented architecture (SOA) further requests to loosely couple the components of a distributed system, the sample shows how local caching can be used to improve performance.
