Building Web Services Using Windows Workflow Foundation
Building Web Services Using Windows Workflow Foundation
Jun. 6, 2006 11:00 AM
Microsoft Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) serves as a framework for integrating a workflow engine into applications. The same framework can be used to coordinate information flow between multiple Web Services. This allows developers to create long-running Business Process using WF workflows and expose them as Web Services to be consumed by external applications. Doing this provides a complete environment that provides tracking, state management, transaction support, concurrency constructs, and rules support for expressing business constraints. The goal of this session is to show developers how you can use the WF to support SOA-enabled services.
