Hi Peter,

Have you had a chance to check my demo gateway application at
http://soapknox.servehttp.com:8080? It has some useful statistical
analysis stuff with respect to service response times (under Web
Services Performance and Web Services Scalability Analysis menus). I
would appreciate any comments you might have on that. Any feedback would
be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

I can't, but I would imagine it would offer much of the same elements of
a
distributed component (like a CORBA service) document. Which broadens
the
scope of examples.

One suggestion - whether you are just writing a client, or just exposing
a
service - you should obtain detailed performance requirements. What
number
of concurrent calls should be supported (if any), and timing thresholds
for
calls (peak load maximum average call time). We obtain that by
estimating
the volume of calls (sometimes pretty easy to do in our
industry/situation,
examine how that is distributed over 24 hours - is it focused on
business
hours for example, and work back to calls per second).

Peter

Hi All,

Can any one point me to a requirements document for a typical Web
Service?

Kind regards,
Dave Searle.
