A. DSTP is a protocol for moving data over the web, similar to HTTP. It can be used directly, but these days it is generally deployed as a web service using SOAP/XML. DSTP is specifically design for working with data: it knows about data, metadata, keys, and data attributes. DSTP also runs over specialized network protocols such SABUL/UDT which are designed for connecting clients and servers over high performance SONET and optical networks.
