I discussed web services in a previous blog post so this time I would just like to share a couple links to explain how there services fit in with Internet Technologies.
Two major classes of Web services are identified, REST-compliant Web services, in which the primary purpose of the service is to manipulate XML representations of Web resources and "Big" Services that uses XML and follow SOAP standards that are popular in Enterprise.
Today, there is another type of webservice that we are seeing more and more of. That is Web 2.0. Web API or Web 2.0 includes the read/write web, blogs, wikis, podcast and cloud computing. The use of web base "office" products (word processing, spreadsheets, etc) and the use of Web Servers like Amazon Web Services.
If you wanted to start a small company, you could potentially do the following: Buy computers with good internet access and use all web based products. You could store all of your data on a Web Server like Amazon Web Services without buying your own servers. You could get all of your company email to go through a web based mail client like GMail. You would not have to buy MS Office because you could use Google Docs or Zoho for all of your productivity needs. And you could build your own company website on web based, template based product like Google Sites or Weebly.
