Variability in Web Services

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Systems and Software Variability Management

Abstract

Service-based computing and associated development paradigms, including service-oriented architecture (SOA), web services, or the idea of “Software as a Service,” have gained significant attention in software engineering industry and research. The aim of this chapter is to provide an introduction to variability in service-based systems. Within this chapter, we use the term “service-based” for systems that are largely or entirely built from web services [4], with SOA as the primary architectural style.
