RE: [egov] USE OF WEB SERVICES

["Beaver, Graham" <graham.beaver@hp.com>]

John et al.,

 

It may be worth while taking some of the 'Governmental' messaging issues that I raised in the 'ebXML Messaging within Governmental' working draft paper and applying that to the WS web services arena as a starting point for discussion.  Most of the issues are the same, although the resolution may be slightly different.  An ideal solution although could be for the same e-Gov extensions for Government Messaging to be applied to both ebXML and WE Web Services.

Subject: [egov] USE OF WEB SERVICES

Now that Web Services seem to have 
reached a good level of maturity we here in the UK are considering when and how 
we should deploy them to support our e-government service delivery plans. 
 For example should our future architecture dictate that everything be 
deployed as a WS or is it a case of WS are more appropriate for different types 
of services.  A colleague of ours has produced the attached discussion 
document which attempts to answer this question and I'd welcome your views on 
this and any experience you already have of deploying WS for Gov applications. 
  

There may be some value in 
the TC producing a guidance  document on this for wider consumption. 
 What do you think? 

Within 
Europe it may be necessary to agree on this if we are to support the concept of 
joined-up pan-European services so such a document might be valuable input to 
deliberations in Brussels. 

Regards, 
John
