Integration with Web services

The role of Web services in solving the multimiddleware problems is discussed. To bridge multiple middleware systems, integration applications require abstractions for the underlying middleware itself. In addition to client applications with multimiddleware access, there's a need for server-oriented multimiddleware applications to serve as multimiddleware entry points to valuable back-end business services. It is concluded that Web services are proving in practice to be the key to providing interconnections in multiple middleware enterprise computing systems.
