Abstract

Web Services is gradually becoming the most popular distributed computing paradigm for the Internet. Although several vendor and research efforts are in progress, fully-fledged deployment of Web Services in a wide scale has not been accomplished yet. The present contribution describes a framework for lightweight deployment of Web Services. This framework can be seen as a contribution to a smooth transition step towards a complete large-scale deployment. The paper starts with a description of data access techniques supporting multiple data providers, devised and used in the scope of a European research project. It is illustrated how schemes employed to provide remote transparent access to the data providers evolved to a lightweight Web Services framework.
