Microsoft, Sun do Web Services interoperability tango

eWeek | at | by Mike

Sun Microsystems took its Web services interoperability effort, code-named Tango, to Microsoft's campus last week for another in a series of meetings where the two companies will learn to dance with one another in the Web services arena.

Microsoft hosted its second Windows Communication Foundation Interop Plug-fest with Sun last week, and at least five Sun engineers attended the three-day event on Microsoft's Redmond, Wash., campus to test interoperability between Sun's Project Tango and WCF, said Arun Gupta, a Sun staff engineer, in a blog post. Other Sun staff participated remotely, he said.
