Scalable and extensible framework for data-driven web services

摘要

A layered architecture for a web service is provided with a data tier, object representation, data transformation, and a service tier. Scalability is achieved by relying on relatively high degree of decoupling, lightweight data interaction, and reducing overhead of transaction demands. Custom web services can be built on top and leverage the capabilities of the flexible framework including lightweight transaction support, event-based business logic extensibility, and efficient data contract binding.
