In this document by Asankha Perera, he describes the basic steps to be followed when deploying the WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) into a WebLogic 10 application server. The WSO2 ESB is an open source Enterprise Service Bus from WSO2, released under the Apache License v2.0 from WSO2.

This article by Lahiru Gunathilake illustrates the latest performance results of Apache Axis2/C and compares with the performance of Axis2/C with Guththila XML parser and libxml2 XML parser.

Apache Axis2/Java supports interfacing with proxies via HTTP Client 3.0.1. This configuration is achieved programmatically, or, by editing the axis2.xml file. In addition to this, you can also employ Java networking properties to configure proxy interfacing. Saminda Abeyruwan explains..

WSO2 ESB comes with a rich collection of useful mediators to filter, transform, route and manipulate messages. Developers can use these custom mediators to very easily add extra functionality. AuthenticationMediator is a custom mediator that can authorize users to access a Web service based on HTTP Basic authentication.

In this interview, recorded at QCon London, Stefan Tilkov talks to Paul Downey, Chief Web Services Architect for BT, about Web services standards, Paul's work in the XML Databinding working group, WS-* vs. REST, and cool stuff BT offers to developers.

Apache Axis2 is THE next generation Web service engine from Apache Software Foundation, which supports latest WS-* specifications. Axis2 is one of the most interoperable Web services engines that exist today. Axis2 has a plethora of features for users, developers and administrators. This article by Eran Chinthaka talks about some of the promising advanced features found inside Axis2.

The WSO2 WSAS clustering implementation supports state replication across a cluster of nodes. The objects that have to be replicated should be serializable, and should be placed in the Axis2 context hierarchy. However, there are situations in which we should refrain from replicating some objects. This tutorial by Afkham Azeez takes a look at how this can be done at system level, and at the level of different Axis2 contexts.

The mail transport that has been written with Axis2 has the capability to connect to public mail servers such as Gmail or Yahoo with ease. Most of these public mail servers allow entities to connect to the server through SSL, and it authenticates the entity.
