Connectivity, people and the internet are the major players to build up a digital economy, Sourcenets is dedicated to build digital infrastructure that will lead Africa to where it plans to be in 50 years to come.
Internet is a universal technology platform that allows any computer to communicate with any other computer in the world. Furthermore, one of the advantages of the internet is that nobody really 'owns' it. It is a global collection of networks, both big and small. These networks connect together in many different ways to form the single entity that we know as the internet.
The internet has revolutionized communication and thereby its contribution to information sharing. With access to a computer and an appropriate connection, anyone can interact with others worldwide; however, the web is designed to exchange unstructured information: while people can read web pages and understand their meaning, computers cannot.
Web services play a complementary and dominant role in building global IS in today's dynamic business world. Web services are self-contained, modular applications that can be described, published, located and invoked over a network.
Web services perform functions ranging from simple requests to complicated business processes. Once a web service is developed, other applications and other web services can discover and invoke the deployed service through universal description, discovery and integration. The idea of web service is to leverage the advantages of the web as a platform to apply it to the application services. We use them, not just to the static information.
We provide components and the services that can be used to build larger application services.
Knowing the critical roles of both internet and web services, Sourcenets is dedicated to provide a good,reliable internet and web services in Africa as an infrastructure.
