13.5. What's Next?

With a working understanding of web services, you're ready to conquer the world, right? Well, not quite. As with anything else in Java, there are as many ways to do business-to-business and service-based communication as there are people doing it. I'd rather not imply that the latest craze (SOAP, UDDI, and WSDL) is the end-all, be-all solution, so in the next chapter I'll introduce a completely different way to tackle intercommunication problems, using various languages, servlets, and RSS (Rich Site Summary). That should round out your knowledge base considerably.
