| The technologies and software
solutions developed by TeN enable organizations
to create a totally web-based environment for
business process management, collaboration, knowledge
acquisition and sharing, and interaction among
employees and stakeholders distributed across
geographical locations. The underlying technology
platform named iSOS, developed by TeN powers the
applications developed and deployed by TeN
The technology strength of TeN is used to deliver
solutions that meet specific customer needs. The
principle of customer-centric design, development
and deployment adopted by TeN means that the customers
and their needs are always the focus. User training
and service support by TeN ensures that the deployed
solutions are effectively used by all members
of the customer organization. TeN technology is
about building distributed web services for Corporate

A web service describes specific business functionality
exposed by a company, usually through an Internet
connection, for the purpose of providing a way
for another company or software program to use
the service. Example: If a user of an automatic
program can connect to a certain program running
on a website (a web server to be exact) and get
Fahrenheit temperature converted to equivalent
in Celsius degrees, the program on the website
is a web service. It is a URL-addressable resource
that programmatically returns information to clients
who want to use it. One important feature of Web
Services is that clients don't need to know how
a service is implemented. Loosely speaking web
service is a service accessible to the users over
the web (through a standard web browser) or through
local programs, which connect over the Web on
the user's behalf. It meets some specific need
of the user or a set of users. Web services can
be local (running on a LAN from a single server)
or distributed when they run over multiple servers
across Internet or such a network. Microsoft's
.NET & Sun's Java One are initiatives to provide
platforms for building distributed web services.
Web Services are normally built on standards like
XML, SOAP, and HTTP to allow interoperability,
which is the basic idea of a web service.
