Solution hosting multiple web service calls(methods) and handling more than one call at a time?
This is the first time I'm using the service to generate a wsdl for a Pega 8 solution. I have a few questions on implementation.
This particular solution allows different calls (Ex: a balance inquiry, fetch an account code, find owner, etc). They each have their own method that is exposed through the service in the solution.
If more than one call comes into the server running the solution will it try to process the multiple calls at the same time?
Will the Pega runtime know to allow one at a time? If so will it allow them to queue and process in order?
Should the different methods/calls be set to synchronous to avoid one stepping on another or does asynchronous allow them to queue correctly?

The solution will allow whatever you as the developer allow. If you only want to perform one call at a time, then you will need to use a mechanism to prevent multiple calls. Without knowing your solution, it is hard to say which is the best method to perform this. There are several ways - using a Lock, tracking using a variable, if all calls come from a single button click staying synchronous could help. Really, what you are asking is a design decision that you will need to incorporate into your solution.
