title: Best practices for web service timeouts
body: <p>It there any article/book that defines upper bounded design limits for WS timeouts? Do you timeout at the server or recommend the client specific timeouts too?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a common best practice like "never design WS that can take longer than 60 seconds, use an asynchronous token pattern"</p>
  
  <p>I am interested in knowing what you do or your opinion too. </p>
