I figured I'd throw this out to these groups since there are a lot of intelligent people on here...
When another service (Requestor) sends a POST to one of our servers (Responder), that page they POST to sends a Response by protocol, and the Requestor sends back an Acknowledgement of that Response... Now, how in the world can we make or server recognize that acknowledgment and if it doesn't recieve an acknowledgement within a timeframe resend the response? Here's the literal problem: 1. Client POST's a request for an Order 2. We Respond with an accepted/rejected status, and if accepted we include an order #. 3. We want to be sure they received the response based on the acknowledgment that happens in http protocal flow. This breaks down to the fundamentals of basic tcp communication and the entire OSI design. We don't want to have to do it with a workaround such as when the send us a post, send another post back... we wan to take advantage of the fundamentals of the entire communications design.
