About the White Paper:
Suddenly, people are talking about utility computing again. This time, it's
for real. With the emergence of Web services, the convergence of telecoms and
computing is finally reaching maturity in a unified platform for doing
business in the 21st century.
The delivery of real-time business services over the World Wide Web is a
development that makes business sense of the Internet. It promises a new era of unprecedented efficiency and productivity -— but only if the right infrastructure is in place.
This white paper describes the emerging shape of that Web services
infrastructure and the nature of the providers who will bring it into being. (Oct. 2002) |
