Title: Re: [soa-rm-ra] random question
I
agree Duane. I think it comes down to whether or not data is the central focus
of what the service does. The type of data service mentioned below would
encompass data management services as well as data access services (i.e.
providing access to one or more data sources, and possibly integrating the data
via federated queries). So perhaps a better name would be "data-centric
services", or "data services" as the umbrella category with subcategories of
"data management services" and "data access services".

Joe,
But
I'm not sure "types" of service providers is relevant. I look at a
service description, decide if the real world effects are what I want (and
whether the rest of the execution context stuff can be aligned), and then I
proceed with the interaction. If I ask for information, I don't know
(unless I have a business reason for this to be part of my rationale for which
service to use) if it is "data" from a database, results from a simulation, or
Mechanical Turk.

think it's a question of service providers, but more specifically of
what *types* of services. So there can be data service providers,
perhaps process service providers (e.g. BPEL-based processes), and
perhaps even application service providers in a different sense than
the traditional ASP (perhaps service-based
applications).

random question
Michael,
My
question is whether there are providers in the SOA sense for something
other than services. For example, one could say there are data
providers but wouldn't they have their data sources accessed using
services? Does that apply to all providing
stakeholders?

Is the government that

stakeholder?
Aren't the "victims" we discussed
at the F2F stakeholders as
well?

Or, do we assume by the nature of SOA that if you provide
something other than a service, that something is a capability
that must have a service access, so you always end up a service
provider?
