Today i read a nice article about Volta. In a very short sentence: Volta is a technolgy which will arrange tier splitting (Client-Server) for you. If you want to know more about Volta you should go to there site. One thing i liked very much is there opion about making request to a webservice. When you invoke a webservice from the client you use the XMLHTTPRequest object and when requesting it from the server you use System.Web.HTTPRequest object. A question mentioned on there site: Why should code that accesses services depend on where the code is running? aaaaaaah yeah. Never thought about it :(. Well they decided when you are building a Volta Application there is only one way to do it. It doens’t matter where the code runs. Pretty nice. Check the post out. Scroll down to the last paragraph “Invoking Services”.
