Summary:Described herein is a system that enables service providers to integrate speech functionality into their applications. A service provider maintains a set of application servers (112). To provide a particular speech service to a client (114) of the application server, the application server causes the client to request the speech service from another set of servers (120). This set of servers is responsible for providing this speech service as well as others. Such speech services include recording digital speech data at the client, and storing the recordings. Later, the application servers may retrieve the recordings, and even more, retrieve data derived from the recordings, such as data generated through speech recognition processes. La présente invention concerne un système qui permet à des fournisseurs de service d'intégrer une fonctionnalité vocale dans leurs applications. Un fournisseur de service accueille un ensemble de serveurs (112) d'application. Aux fins d'offrir un service vocal particulier à un client (114) du serveur d'application, ce serveur d'application induit le client à demander ce service vocal à un autre ensemble de serveurs (120). Cet ensemble de serveurs sont à même d'offrir ce service vocal de même que d'autres services. Ces services vocaux comprennent l'enregistrement de données vocales numériques chez le client, et le stockage de ces enregistrements. Plus tard, ces serveurs d'application peuvent localiser ces enregistrements, voire localiser des données issues de ces enregistrements, telles que des données générées par des processus de reconnaissance vocale.
