Abstract:
1. A method for providing collaborative quality-of-service for a service-oriented architecture, the method comprising: exposing, by an application service executing on an application server, a service application-programming interface to a service consumer; exposing, by the application service executing on the application server, a quality-of-service application-programming interface to the service consumer, the quality-of-service application-programming interface reporting quality-of-service metrics of the application service, the quality-of-service metrics measured by the application service; receiving, by the application service through the quality-of-service application-programming interface from the service consumer, a request for a quality-of-service metric of the quality-of-service metrics of the application service, the request received during dynamic binding between the service consumer and the application service; and responding to the request by providing, by the application service via the quality-of-service application-programming interface, the quality-of-service metric to the service consumer.
