Building B2B Applications with XML 
A Resource Guide

What every IT manager and system administrator needs to know about
the technology that drives the B2B marketplace

The B2B marketplace is rapidly exploding–fast outpacing
business-to-consumer e-commerce and expected to reach more than $7
trillion in sales by 2004. This guidebook equips XML authors,
programmers, and managers with the technology know-how they need to
create and develop simple yet robust B2B systems from scratch. It
provides easy-to-understand explanations on how and why XML and
other important technologies such as HTTP and MIME are driving the
B2B marketplace. Along with XML and Java code examples, readers
will find broad coverage of emerging standards and protocols,
including Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), eb XML from
OASIS/UN/CEFACT, XML Common Business Language (x CBL), Biz Talk, and
Commerce XML (c XML).
