This is the most predominant reason why I absolutely refuse to jump on the
webservices bandwagon. With Jini/Java, I am in control of my architecture. I
can start out small, and grow the architecture to support the features I need.
My ongoing mantra about mobile code is all about this issue of scaling service
implementations independent of the programatic interfaces. The fact that the
webservices crowd is favoring big business opportunities create a lot of the
"there are no small solutions" statements. The lack of programatic interfaces
into some of these systems also means that I can't add features that I need.
Instead, I'd have to wait for the vendor to provide a particular feature that
integrates with their system.
