A web service is a software system designed to support machine-to-machine interaction over a
network. It has an interface described in a machine-processable format called WSDL. Other
systems interact with the web service in a manner prescribed by its description.
An HTTP service is nothing more than an HTTP request to a URL. The primary purpose of
HTTP services is to retrieve XML data from an external source.
A remote object is a Java object in the Flex application’s classpath.
