An Overview of Service-Oriented Architecture, Web Services and Grid Computing

Overview Web services and a service-oriented style of architecture are widely seen as the basis for a new generation of distributed applications and system management tools. This paper introduces the key concepts, relationships and benefits of these two technologies, and indicated how they can be combined to develop highly scalable application systems that can span management and ownership domains, regardless of the hardware and software platforms deployed in each. It also shows how the careful development of key standards is increasing the appeal of service-oriented environments, and how they are being used as the basis for development of interoperable next-generation grids.
