From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MetaServer is RPA (Robotic Process Automation) software that does repetitive work so that you and your employees don't have to.[1]
MetaServer is a central broker providing a collated view (similar to a database view) for dispersed web resources. It is used to collect data from various web services, web pages, databases, or other online resources/repositories and then present the combined results to the client using a standard web protocol (e.g. HTTP with HTML, REST, SOAP, XML-RPC, etc.).
Styles of use
[edit]
The purpose of such a system is to provide one or several of the following:
-
a unified view on multiple resources
-
easy comparison of the data
-
standardized access to different repositories
-
calibration of the data
-
determining the data consensus
[edit]
Typical, widespread implementations of MetaServers are:
-
Meta-Search-Engines
-
DNS MetaServers
-
Protein Structure and Function Prediction Gateways
-
Computer Game MetaServers
-
Text Mining MetaServers (e.g. BioCreative Metaserver - BCMS)
