How can i send an international SMS (or place a call) with a HTTPS request?
What reliable service providers do you know / use?
I want to use a SMS service instead of a hardware aproach.

We've had good service from Clickatell, who are based in South Africa. They have APIs via several different methods including https and smtp.

I am in Australia and have used Clickatell before from a rails application via API as well as via smtp from nagios. No problems in the past 12 months.
MX Telecom provide a pretty good service in EMEA and NA using a simple HTTP[S] GET interface.
Usual features such as originator address, flash messages, multipart and delivery reports are included.

There is another provider with an HTTPS API called TextMagic. They provide wrapper libraries for their HTTPS API in a number of languages.
(Full disclosure: I am the author of the Python wrapper library at textmagic-sms-api-python)
The TextMagic API allow you to send sms messages to landline phones too? If not, you can add this feature to the system. See text2land.com
