Sun is looking for a way to speed up web services. According to this Sun article;
The main goal of Fast Web Services is:
To enable fast and efficient end-to-end, interoperable, Web Services for a whole spectrum of devices, from mobile phones to large back end servers
For the Java community this goal translates as:
To enable fast and efficient end-to-end, interoperable, Web Services for J2ME, J2SE and J2EE platforms
A sub-set of the main goals is to:
Minimize the impact on the developer
Interoperate with existing peers
Become a multi-platform standard
In addition to these goals, there is also the desire to develop an SOAP alternative that can be utilized by non-Java tools such as Perl, Python and PHP. How far will they get and how fast will they get there?
