Web Services Development Tools

by Tom Welsh

The whole point about Web services is their ability to uncouple client and server software platforms. All that goes across the wire is a chunk of XML, which the receiver is expected to parse and interpret. There is absolutely no constraint on which hardware, operating system, object model, or programming language is used at either end of the link. It works, too: already there are plenty of Web services out there that have been coded in everything from Basic to Perl and Python.
