Don't redevelop them! Don't redevelop them!
We can use already existing libraries to provide new functionalities to our programs: we just have to write a service and to define new messages to request it, period.

**Language independent**.
You have an awesome library to do X, but it's written in an obscure language.
Who cares?
Write a simple service that can be requested following our protocol, everybody will be able to use your library without painful-to-maintain bindings!
We may even assist you doing that by providing templates for your language, or check the other services!

# Not adapted to everything
If you need incredible performances for your application, maybe this won't fit.
There is no silver bullet or one-fit-all solution.
