Web Services
Web services are a type of Web application. They are self-contained,
self-describing, modular applications that can be published,
located, and invoked across the Web. Web services perform functions,
which can be anything from simple requests to complicated business
processes.
Simply stated, these are the building blocks of an application.
They're independent engines that enable applications to share
data and, more importantly, to access the functionality of other
applications without regard to how those applications were implemented,
where they reside, or on which operating system or platform they
run.
Web services represent a powerful way for organizations to export
data and functionality to their customers and business partners.
