Abstract

This paper discusses the value-added of diversity to support fault tolerant Web Services operation. Web Services offering the same functionality are gathering into the same virtual space referred to as diversity group. Besides the group additional components are used including: composite manager, group manager, and Web service manager. The first component invokes the diversity groups and either resumes or aborts the overall execution in case of failures. The second component oversees Web services execution and the interactions between them. Finally, the last component monitors a Web service execution and reports either failure or success to the group manager. An architecture and a set of experiments showing the use of diversity to design and deploy fault tolerant Web services is presented in this paper.
