Service Proxy: static endpoint pattern

Use this pattern to provide decoupling between web service requesters and web service providers by routing through a virtual service that is bound directly to the target service provider.

Use this pattern:

• When you do not want the client to access the service directly, either because the address of the endpoint at which the service is located might change, or because it must be hidden to control access to the service
• To support service access over HTTP or HTTPS
• When you want to provide logging of all requests to the service provider, or when you want to provide additional error handling capabilities without making changes to the service provider
