Enables development of Web Interfaces to run a given job on any computer with any data source compliant with this framework just as JDBC gives a universal interface to any relational database
-
i.e. enables seamless computing
|
The Computing Services Framework will allow vendors to compete on either User Front End (GUI) or back end services with the JavaCS framework providing universal linkage
|
The framework is implemented at the backend as a set of drivers which map generic Java Interfaces to particular software (e.g. a compiler) on particular machines.
|
Requires agreement by "suitable interested parties" on
-
what are the services
-
what are the interfaces for a given service
-
As with JDBC and Oracle's PL/SQL can lead to difficult choices!
