Web services
We develop and operate web services.
Web services are remote applications that can be remotely accessed ("RPC", or remote procedure calls) over the internet or an intranet. They are a great way to allow one web application to call another one.
Let us give an example: company A has a small web application that collects support requests that customers fill in from the internet (Company A does not have an integrated Siebel-style Customer Relationship Management system). Several other internal applications need to be able to query those support requests: the support centre, the development team, the sales team. A solution is to implement a very simple web service that is made available to other intranet applications.
To get an idea, you can see an example of web service on our website.
Depending on requirements, such web services can be operated by a third party or by the company itself.
Web service architectures can be a very simple and efficient way to deploy services.
