Abstract: As Web services have matured, they've also acquired the need for asynchronous push capabilities. Early Web services, such as those for getting traffic or weather reports or for performing currency exchange-rate calculations, were seemingly all remote procedure calls-oriented. In an RPC system, the receiver typically performs the requested service and sends a response back to the caller over the same connection on which the request arrived, which means the details required by the service for sending a reply are implicit in the RPC network connection. Unfortunately, these kinds of implied communication details are wholly inadequate for asynchronous push Web services.
