* application is first loaded. At the time an Entry Point bean is first
* instantiated, the client has not yet federated with the server bus, so remote
* service names are not yet known. Most often, initialization code should be
* placed in a method annotated with {@link AfterInitialization} rather than in
* the bean's constructor.
