1. Web service
A web service is a software program identified by an URI (Uniform Resource Identifier), which can be accessed via the Internet through an interface that is publicly available. The interface description declares the operations which can be performed by the service, the types of messages being exchanged during the interaction with the service, and the physical location of ports, where information should be exchanged.
