Having only one operation per service suggests that they were document-oriented - e.g, "here's a purchase order, do something to it and give the updated version back (or pass it on)". Such a REST-like style seems well-suited to the cross-cutting approach approach to SOA that Anne described (services as filters or decorators). -- All the best Keith http://keith.harrison-broninski.info PS: Eric Newcomer wrote: >The Credit Suisse example is also pretty well >documented in in "Enterprise SOA" and in somewhat less >detail in "Understanding SOA with Web services." > Thanks for looking all this up Eric - though I don't have these books, unfortunately!
