The 'Common Web Services' framework is an E*TRADE Technology for advertising, monitoring and routing web service calls in a distributed system consisting of C/C++ and Java service implementations. The framework allows services to be dynamically advertised, called from synchronous and asynchronous clients as well as forwarded. Each service call may be queued if the back end pool of workers is busy, and all services and workers can be monitored and controlled via a command line or web interface.
