Basics

  • XML Web Services expose useful functionality to Web users through a standard Web protocol. In most cases, the protocol used is SOAP.
  • XML Web services provide a way to describe their interfaces in enough detail to allow a user to build a client application to talk to them. This description is usually provided in an XML document called a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) document.
  • XML Web services are registered so that potential users can find them easily. This is done with Universal Discovery Description and Integration (UDDI).
