Preface

This book will explain how to use CORS, including specific implementations for platforms such as Drupal, WordPress, IIS server, ASP.NET, JBoss, Windows Azure, and Salesforce, as well as how to use CORS in the Cloud on Amazon AWS, YouTube, Mulesoft, and others. It will examine the limitations, security risks, and alternatives to CORS. It will examine the W3C specification and major developer documentation sources about CORS. It will predict what kind of extensions to the CORS specification, or completely new techniques, may come in the future to address the limitations of CORS.
