I have appeared OCEJWSD6 exam today and passed with 98% . I have started preparing last year and then couldn't continue because of project dead lines.
Started preparing again for past 2-3 months (with a full time job and family !)

Used the following books:
1. J2EE Web services - Richard, Monson - Haefel (for XML, XSD, SOAP, WSDL etc)
2. Java web services up and running - Martin Kalin (JAX-WS, SOAP)
3. REST ful Java Web services - Jose Sandoval (JAX-RS, REST, Jersey etc)
4. Ivan Kristan notes (SCJWSD5) (covered everything except for UDDI and JAXR)
5. Mikalai Zaikin notes (both SCJWSD5 and OCEJWSD6) (covered everything except for UDDI and JAXR)
6. Oracle J2EE 6 documentation
7. WS-I Basic Profile documentation
8. Refreshed my notes on Servlets, EJB 3.1 etc

Mock exams:
1. Mikalai Zaikin's OCEJWSD6 mock exam - i skipped UDDI and JAXR parts in appendix

I would say both Ivan and MZ notes are a MUST to study. Use MZ mock exam as another study guide! THANK YOU so much to Ivan and Mikalai!!!

The exam was not so tough as expected. Most of the questions are conceptual ones and you need to have a good understanding about everything to answer these questions because the answers are from different topics. So if you don’t know one topic, you will easily be confused what to choose. There were several multiple choice questions with pretty much all answers looks correct! I was relieved to see there were NO questions from UDDI or JAXR !

* SOAP , XML, WSDL, SAAJ, JAX-WS, SOAP encodingStyle , SOAP encoding etc
* Servlet end points - web.xml
* EJB end points
* webservices.xml
* REST - JAX-RS, sub resources, sub resource locator
* JAXP, SAX, DOM, XSLT, JAXB etc
* Logical and SOAP Handlers - server side
* MTOM - enabling etc
* WS-Addressing - enabling, routing response to different endpoint address etc
* WS-Policy
* WS-Security - what is covered and what is NOT covered
* XKMS, SAML, XACML, basic authentication, mutual authentication, digital signatures, SSL, encryption etc
* WS IT - interoperability - best practices
* Java - WSDL and WSDL - Java approaches
* synchronous / aynchronous clients etc.
* document / rpc / litral / encoded etc
* request - response , oneway - messaging patterns


good luck to all fellow exam aspirants!

hi sreenivas, SCDJWS is for J2EE5 and OCEJWSD6 is for J2EE6.
I think the main difference in WSD6 exam is that there is no UDDI and JAXR. But there is JAX-RS, REST (very detailed) , MTOM, WS-Addressing etc. Rest are pretty much the same
Good luck !!

Hi Ashwini,

Please read only XML, XSD, SOAP, WSDL chapters from the RMH book. There is no latest editions, but this is still good for XML, XSD, SOAP, WSDL basics etc.
Good luck!

Ashwini, sorry, I have no Spring experience, I am not the best person to answer this! I know some of my friends who use Spring modules and Spring- WS. JAX-WS JAX-RS are specifications and there are so many implementations. People choose whichever implementation suits best to them. There is no harm in learning the basics and what goes on behind the scenes. You can use any IDE and create and deploy a web service within couple of mouse clicks. But if you don't know what is happening inside, you won't be able to trouble shoot issues when they occur. To do the certification or not is entirely your choice, you have to make that decision.

I promise you that most people study first edition of this book and pass the exam.
The second edition came out in late 2013. Before that, most ranchers studied the first edition and passed the exam.

Dear Rajeev Rnair,

Thanks for sharing your experience. now I am preparing for this exam and I am so confused about "mock exams". what about Mikalai Zaikin's OCEJWSD6 mock exam ? is it cover all subjects and is it identical to real exam questions?

MZ's notes and quizzes are helpful, but not exactly the same as the real exam.
Have you tried EPractice Labs and Enthuware?
