Abstract

A service-based networking capability is presented. The service-based networking capability replaces traditional networking connections between endpoints with service connections between endpoints. The service-based networking capability supports establishment and use of a service connection between endpoints, where the service connection between endpoints may be provided below the application layer and above the transport layer. The establishment and use of a service connection between endpoints may be provided using a connected services stack, which may include a connected services layer that is configured to operate below the application layer and above the transport layer.
