Abstract
The present invention is a method and system for non-intrusively dispatching service requests in a service node nested in a service topology. The method can include receiving a service request in the service node and identifying a requested operation and corresponding parameters for the requested operation from the received service request. A port end point address can be obtained for the requested operation and a service list can be located for the requested operation. It can be determined whether the service node is a destination hub. If so, an operation corresponding to THE service request can be invoked. Otherwise, a service node at a different level in the service topology can be selected and the foregoing process can be recursively performed.
