Study Notes
Web Services
- The primary function of a web service is to provide a platform-independent, loosely-coupled, and encapsulated interface to access a specific functionality or resource over the internet.
Interoperability
- Interoperability in the context of web services refers to the ability of different systems, platforms, and applications to seamlessly communicate and exchange data with each other, regardless of the technology, programming language, or operating system used.
Web Service Architecture
- The two primary parts of web services are: • Service provider: the provider of the service, which makes the service available to clients. • Service consumer: the client that uses the service provided.
Cloud Computing
- The primary goal of cloud computing, according to the U.S. National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST), is to provide on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources, such as servers, storage, applications, and services, that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.
Web Service Server
- A web service server primarily acts as a hosting environment for web services, responsible for receiving requests, processing them, and returning responses to the clients.
