interservice positive

Morphology

interservice = service (transparent) = inter + service

The adjective is formed by adding 'inter-' to 'service' to mean 'between services' (here software services), a straightforward and compositional derivation.

Etymology

Interservice comes from the parts inter- ('between') and service ('a unit that gives help or a function'), so it describes communication or coordination between separate software services or parts of an application. So, interservice means the work, messages, or data that move between different software parts.
