Systems and methods are described for performing policy-managed, peer-to-peer service orchestration in a manner that supports the formation of self-organizing service networks that enable rich media experiences. In one embodiment, services are distributed across peer-to-peer communicating nodes, and each node provides message routing and orchestration using a message pump and workflow collator. Distributed policy management of service interfaces helps to provide trust and security, supporting commercial exchange of value. Peer-to-peer messaging and workflow collation allow services to be dynamically created from a heterogeneous set of primitive services. The shared resources are services of many different types, using different service interface bindings beyond those typically supported in a web service deployments built on UDDI, SOAP, and WSDL. In a preferred embodiment, a media services framework is provided that enables nodes to find one another, interact, exchange value, and cooperate across tiers of networks from WANs to PANs.

A highly available transaction recovery service migration system in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention implements a server's Transaction Recovery Service (TRS) as a migratable service. In one embodiment of the present invention, the TRS is a server instance or software module implemented in JAVA. The TRS migrates to an available server that resides in the same cluster as the failed server. The migrated TRS obtains the TLOG of the failed server, reads the transaction log, and performs transaction recovery on behalf of the failed server. The migration may occur manually or automatically on a migratable services framework. The TRS of the failed server migrates back in a fail back operation once the failed primary server is restarted. Failback operation may occur whether recovery is completed or not. This expedites recovery and improves availability of the failed server thereby preserving the efficiency of the network and other servers.

A service framework uses importance ranking information in making call decisions and / or wait-time decisions in connection with service requests. Each of the service requests has an importance ranking which reflects the importance of the information provided by the service to a task being performed. The health of a service may be controlled by permitting fewer (or more) service requests to be made to the service when the service is less (or more) healthy. The likelihood of a service request being made to the service may depend on the importance ranking of the service request. When waiting for a response, a determination whether to continue waiting may be made based on the likelihood that the service has failed and based on the importance of the information to the task being performed.
