- Title
- Externally Hosted Web Services
- Abstract:
- Providing a Web service is easy. All you need is a Unix box,
the Apache Web server software and tools to create HTML pages.
However as Web services develop organisations find themselves
under increasing pressure to implement new facilities, which may
cost money or require technical support - resources which may be
in short supply in public libraries. In this talk Brian Kelly
describes a range of externally hosted Web services which can
provide a range of services for little or no cost and which
require minimal technical support. Is this too good to be true,
or is there a catch?
