Abstract
Techniques and mechanisms for providing asynchronous web service calls in an on-demand services environment. In response to request from a remote client, a page is provided. The page has content including logic to retrieve information from a remote resource external to an on-demand services environment via at least one asynchronous web service call. A controller component of the page is loaded before rendering a response to the remote computing device. At least one web service call is sent to the remote resource with the controller component. A continuation object is returned with the controller component to release the first thread from waiting for a response to the web service call. The continuation object provides a label to be used when handling the response. The response to the web service call is received from the remote resource and processing is resumed with the continuation object.
