Web Services using WSDL and SOAP

Web Services using WSDL and SOAP

You can convert your applications into web-applications.

You can use XML to send messages between applications.


WSDL

WSDL is an XML-based language for describing Web services and how to access them.

WSDL describes a web service, along with the message format and protocol details for the web service.


SOAP

SOAP is a simple XML-based protocol that allows applications to exchange information over HTTP.

Or more simply: SOAP is a protocol for accessing a web service.
