Service benefits
There are many advantages to Services:
| • | Cross-language — Client and Service can be in different languages |
| • | Dynamic — Method names can be determined dynamically, or use generated proxies for type safety |
| • | Flexible — Use synchronous or asynchronous invocation patterns; can use client proxies generated by GridServer |
| • | Virtual — Client-Engine correspondence is not one-to-one; Service requests are adaptively load balanced |
| • | Stateful — Despite being virtual, stateful Services can be handled |
| • | Standards — Standards-compliant |
