Getting started with Web Services

I am working on a small application that needs to grow, the right
solution is Web Services, but I don't know much about how to really
leverage them in an application. The web server that is currently
being used is Apache and I would like to develop the WS in C++, so
AXIS seems like the most logical solution. The problem I am facing is
a lack of understanding on how to really leverage WS. I see all these
different WS-* specifications:

WS-Addressing
WS-Policy
WS-Security
WS-SecurityPolicy
WS-ReliableMessaging
WS-Eventing

And don't really understand how to glue them all together to develop
my application. I am currently in version 1 and am looking to make
version 2 purely WS based.
What I am looking for is some resources that will better explain to me
how to actually leverage all these great WS specifications.

I know that WSO2 has some training, but I simply don't have the budget
for that right now, I am a one man shop that is working on this
program part time, it is more of a hobby then anything else. So I am
looking for books, web sites, etc.

Senaka,

Do you have a source for this book? Will I find it at Amazon? If so,
might you have a ISBN number?

Senaka,

Looking on Amazon and B&N, the reviews are not all that impressive.
Have you read the book?

The author of this book is a key contributor to Axis2 and a couple of
other related Apache projects. So it must be really helpful. Anyway for
any additional reading material, I recommend you refer to the library on
WSO2 OxygenTank [1] , the developer portal for SOA.

Sam,
In the mean time you can check how WS-* is used within Axis2/C to solve WS
scenarios. You can try samples in the distro, so you'll understand how WS-*
fits in the big picture.
