From the beginning, Web Services have been intended for application to application integration where the traditional distributed object models fail. To make application to application integration feasible, three features must be delivered: coarse grained messages (now XML packaged in SOAP and described by WSDL), asynchrony (describable by WSDL), and loosely coupled implementations. These very basic requirements are difficult to deliver. Adam Bosworth explores these three key components of Web Services and provides additional insight by drawing examples from BEA's new project, code-named "Cajun."
