 *  <p>Service endpoints may implement the <code>Provider</code>
 *  interface as a dynamic alternative to an SEI.
 *
 *  <p>Implementations are required to support <code>Provider&lt;Source&gt;</code>,

 *  <code>Provider&lt;DataSource&gt;</code>, depending on the binding
 *  in use and the service mode.
 *
 *  <p>The <code>ServiceMode</code> annotation can be used to control whether
 *  the <code>Provider</code> instance will receive entire protocol messages
 *  or just message payloads.
