Web services represent a new architecture for creating applications that can be accessed from a different system. Web Services are self-describing, modular applications that can be published, located, and invoked dynamically over the web. Enables interoperability across:
- Distributed computing platforms
- Operating systems
- Programming languages
- Geographic boundaries
Web Services Framework:
- Enables interoperable services over the standard interfaces
- Supports publishing, discovery, and binding services
- Separates data instances from service instances
- Enables one provider’s services to be used by another provider’s data
