Exam3 Flashcards
This provides a service interface enabling clients to interact with servers in a more general way then
web browser do
Web service
This specifies the rules for using XML to package messages, for example to support a request/reply
protocol
The soap protocol
This works as an addition to web servers is based on the ability to use an HTTP request to cause the
execution of a program
The provision of web service
This is a textual representation that,
although more bulky than alternative representations, has been adopted for its readability and the
consequent ease of debugging
XML
This generally consists of a
collection of operations that can be used by a client over the internet
Web service interface
The operations in a web service may
be provided by a varietly of different
resources, for example
Programs, objects and database
They access the operations in the interface of a web service by means of requests and replies formatted in XML and usually transmitted over
HTTP
Clients
This refers to minimizing the
dependencies between services in
order to have a flexible underlying
architecture (reducing the risk that a
change in one service will have a
knock-on effect on the other
services)
Loose coupling
The acces point of a web service
with a ___________ can depend on
context and can change from time to
time, its current _________ can be
obtained from a ______ lookup
service
URN, URL, URN
This is designed to enable both
client-server and asynchronous
interaction over the internet
SOAP
This is an alternative approach
which uses its own service
description to deal with the servicespecify characteristics of the
messages its receives
REST
This is carried in an ‘envelope’.
Inside the envelope there is an optional header and a body
SOAP MESSAGE
The key characteristic of most web services in that they can process
XML formatted SOAP messages
This is a persistent reference, meaning that it will continue to refer to the service for as long as the server the URL, point to exists.
URL
In this type of service, the user authentication service and the print service can be implemented
more easily when they can fall back on the file service to meet their persistent storage needs.
the name service: the name service
This file type is a special type, which provides a mapping of text names to internal file identifiers.
A directory.
The files contain these two elements. The first is accessible by operations to read and write any
part of the stream, and the second is maintained as a single record containing information such as
file length, timestamps, file type, owner identity and access control lists.
Data and attributes.
