Abstract: A web service interface defined for a billing service, comprising a plurality of application programming interfaces, where each application programming interface is associated with a billing function provided by the billing service, where each of the application programming interfaces can be implemented such that the billing function associated therewith is performed after a web service invocation that commands performance of that billing function is received by the web service interface. The web service interface is used to provide the billing service as a web service to computing applications in a distributed network environment.

Abstract: A system and method that facilitates the hosting of scheduler web services provided to computing devices in distributed network environments. According to one aspect of the invention, the system comprises a scheduler web service wrap adapted for coupling to a scheduler engine that resides on a first computing device, providing a common scheduler web service. The syst em also comprises a wakeup web service wrap adapted for coupling to an application that reside s on a second computing device in the distributed network. When the scheduler engine commands the application to execute a specified scheduled task, the scheduler web service wrap communicates an instruction to the wakeup web service wrap, which then commands the application to execu te the specified scheduled task in response to the instruction. The usage of the common scheduler web service can be metered and provisioned as a billable service.
