BEA WebLogic Workshop 8.1 enables any developer — even those new to Java or J2EE — to build service-oriented, enterprise-class Web applications and Web services with productivity levels never seen in the Java world before.

Once you can build Web applications and Web services with Workshop, you can build any WebLogic Platform application — including Portals and Integration applications — using the same, simplified Workshop approach of visual development, events, properties, and Controls.
