Design And Implementation Of A Byzantine Fault Tolerance Framework For Web Services, Wenbing Zhao
Design And Implementation Of A Byzantine Fault Tolerance Framework For Web Services, Wenbing Zhao
Wenbing Zhao
Many Web services are expected to run with high degree of security and dependability. To achieve this goal, it is essential to use a Web services compatible framework that tolerates not only crash faults, but Byzantine faults as well, due to the untrusted communication environment in which the Web services operate. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of such a framework, called BFT-WS. BFT-WS is designed to operate on top of the standard SOAP messaging framework for maximum interoperability. It is implemented as a pluggable module within the Axis2 architecture, as such, it requires minimum changes to …
