Abstract

A web service is a software system designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network. Recently it is in the limelight being used for implementing Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Traditionally, the web service for SOA is provisioned based on Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). In the advent of web 2.0, Representational State Transfer (REST) which focused on using the Web as it is by following its basic principles is come into being. As REST is becoming more popular, the design paradigm melted in REST makes Resource Oriented Architecture (ROA) an alternative or a complement to SOA. Telco has traditionally heavy transaction systems and network control systems are managed in a closed manner. So it is not easy to provide web services. In this paper, we propose a ROA-based web service provisioning methodology and a platform architecture for Telco. We also explain the implementation of the ROA-based web service platform in KT.
