| Etch - a cross-platform, language- and transport-independent |
| framework for building and consuming network services. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Etch is a cross-platform, language- and transport-independent |
| framework for building and consuming network services. The Etch |
| toolset includes a network service description language, a compiler, |
| and binding libraries for a variety of programming languages. Etch is |
| also transport-independent, allowing for a variety of different |
| transports to used based on need and circumstance. The goal of Etch is |
| to make it simple to define small, focused services that can be easily |
| accessed, combined, and deployed in a similar manner. Ultimately with |
| Etch, service development and consumption becomes no more difficult |
| than library development and consumption. |
