Thoughts on Web Services, part 1: Introduction
I have been doing a lot of thinking lately on the subject of Web Services. Recent talks I had with customers, my own experiences in the field, some talks I visited during conferences, and some interesting articles I read have changed my opinion of the subject significantly.
Because I have not been blogging for a while, I thought that it might be interesting to create a series of articles on this subject. This is the first post in that series; I don’t know how many will follow, right now I’m thinking of about three to five posts.
Please note that this series is not tied to any specific framework, be it .NET or Java. Additionally, please note that - as of yet - there is not relation with XFire; it might or might not be implemented into XFire, I do not know.
