Subject: all service providers are proxies???
All: I just read a great article on web service integration patterns at: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/ws/2004/06/16/patterns.html Max addresses the fact that all modern web services are in fact proxies by the fact they abstract the true API by using XML/SOAP/ebXML etc to invoke the service. As such, the proxy performs a few items 1. setParameterA() 2. setParameterb() ... 3. callService() //in native API language 4. getResult() ... I believe that this is a good notion to have. Matt Mackenzie posted an email this morning to that effect that eventually, this abstraction layer may go away but for now serves a valuable service. Thoughts?
