Service Based Architecture vs Web Services

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Hi, 

I am testing Service Based Architecture for GP 2015 R2 installation. I had previously tried Web Client in GP 2013.

While i have successfully install SBA in a test VM, I notice that there is similar feature called Web Service.

Reading through the available online material for Web Service, I have the impression that these 2 technologies is almost identical.

Can someone with more experience, explain?

    This link might help.

    Also look at what you need to access, for example transactions with SOP module is not available using SBA at this time.

    I am aware that Web Service sits on top of eConnect and there is some limitation that can not be done in Web Service.

    But Web Services has security and policy settings, which I can not find in SBA

    Hi Tim,

    I have read that before, but there is no comparison with Web Services.

    I am evaluating some customization idea and would like to decide whether to use SBA or not

    Hi Hendry,

    SBA is a REST based architecture... Web Services is not. Which means also that you can use the full range of Sanscript language on SBA. See Mariano's blog post back in 2014 here : http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.ca/2014/08/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2015-developers.html

    Have you watched the Video from Microsoft about the SBA setup ? https://youtu.be/2K04yKOxySY

    I found this question in SO

    stackoverflow.com/.../wsdl-vs-rest-pros-and-cons

    so, SBA = REST, Web Services = SOAP
