Well I crashed my entire website doing something really stupid (that exposed the benefit of stateless transactions?).
The other day my auto-update routine didn't run for whatever reason. I figured this was no big deal, happened once before and I only had to trigger my handy-dandy web service which started a dataload process in a new thread. Everything worked perfect. Only this time I triggered it then logged out right away. It seems using arcs existing srv framework is less flexible than I would like.
I believe implementing a RESTful service that is stateless will likely make the service more robust. Opinions anyone?
This time I was really lucky that I checked a few minutes later and restarted the service.... My 40 users were almost in tears - lol :)
