Statistical Service Implementation Description

Template

Name : A name that identifies the Statistical Service implementation. It must be unique in the Service catalogue.
Version: Version number
Builder Organization: The owner of the Statistical Service, i.e. the Service Builder's organization.
Statistical Service Definition: The link to the Statistical Service Definition document.
Statistical Service Specification: The link to the Statistical Service Specification document.
Invocation protocols: Depending on the chosen architectural pattern, specify how the service has to be invoked in the deployed infrastructure.
If the service is capable to work in many architectural patterns with different implementations, then it would require different Service Implementation documents, one per supporter pattern.
Service Interface
Protocol-dependent specification of the information required to invoke the service.

• Definition of Service Interface (if service is Web service) or
• Environment settings (if service is local)

Examples:

• WSDL interface for SOAP Web Service protocol
• List of HTTP request parameters for REST Web Service protocol
• Command line specification for Command Line protocol
• Add other examples for other supported protocols

Data-by-Reference protocols: For each input passed as reference, specify supported protocol(s). Accepted protocols are listed in this document.
Technical dependencies: Which methodologies listed in the Statistical Service Specification are supported by this Service Implementation
Technical dependencies: List of technical requirements of the service in terms of:

• Operating system(s) (specify version)
• Runtime platforms – any additional software that has to be installed on the machine the service is installed on (e.g. SAS, R, Java virtual machine, .net runtime, J2EE container, etc. – Specify version)
• Database(s)
• Other dependencies (libraries, packages etc.)
