Time to balance WS-* and REST

REST is particularly suitable for very large networks with huge numbers of clients and servers and where it is convenient to model all operations as reads and writes directed to individual URIs. As for WS-*, its sweet spot lies in systems bigger than those that use distributed objects, and whose networks are further flung, slower, less reliable, and possibly divided between different administrative domains.

Mindreef SOAPscope

Service reuse is one of the most sought-after objectives on any SOA implementation, giving your company more agility and the ability to better compete in today's competitive business environment. But without SOA quality, reuse is essentially unattainable. Mindreef SOAPscope makes service reuse a reality.

SOAPscope enables SOA Quality from the service provider lifecycle and the service consumer lifecycle.

For the service provider lifecycle, SOAPscope provides fast, easy, automated testing and quality assurance solutions that address new testing challenges:

  • How do you test an always on service without impacting a business (i.e., initiating transactions on live services/applications?)

  • How will QA teams test webservices without extensive training on XML?

  • How can teams test against offline or unavailable date sources?

For the service consumer lifecycle, SOAPscope provides design-time support that reduces the burden on developers to continuously support, and educate the users of their services by addressing these new design-time challenges:

  • How can non-XML experts view and understand what services are available in a registry for reuse?

  • How do they know if a service is right for them without the ability to try a service before prototyping?

  • How do architects know if a service conforms to industry and corporate standards?
