THE WEB HAS RADICAlly TRAnSFORmED THE WAy we produce and share informa- tion. Its international ecosystem of applications and services allows us to search, aggre- gate, combine, transform, replicate, cache, and archive the information that underpins today’s digital society. Successful despite its chaotic growth, it is the largest, least formal integration project ever attempted—all of this, despite having barely entered its teenage years. Today’s Web is in large part the human Web: human users are the direct consumers of the services offered by the majority of today’s web applications. Given its success in managing our digital needs at such phenomenal scale, we’re now starting to ask how we might apply the Web’s underlying architectural principles to building other kinds of distributed systems, particularly the kinds of distributed systems typically implemented by “enterprise application” developers. least formal integration project ever attempted—all of this, despite having barely entered its teenage years.
