Sam Ruby has written an excellent essay on building extensible web services. "It it trite but true... change is inevitable. Given the distributed nature of the internet, what is of paramount importance is that systems be designed and implemented in manners that enable change to be accommodated in both upwards and downwards compatible manners. This means not only ensuring that old clients work with new servers, but also that new clients work with old servers. This essay outlined one possible way to achieve this and demonstrated that this approach is highly compatible with the existing ASP.NET implementation." 3:20:34 PM Google It! |
