I am a beginner to BPEL . so can u please guide me with some useful books . so that i could be able to start BPEL from scratch ..!!!
I found the book Ws-Bpel 2.0 for Soa Composite Applications with Oracle Soa Suite 11g written by Matjaz B. Juric interesting. It covers the current version of BPEL and also shows how to implement it using one of the leading BPEL engines.
But if you want the ultimate source of truth, I would recommend to read the specification.
