IBM Integration Bus and web services
an IBM® Integration Bus application
can participate in a web services environment as a service requester,
as a service provider, or both.
The SOAP domain supports these formats:
- Common web services message formats SOAP 1.1, SOAP 1.2, SOAP with
Attachments (SwA), and MTOM.
- Consistent SOAP logical tree format, which is independent of the
exact message format.
- WS-Addressing, WS-Security, and WS-RM standards.
The following nodes are provided for use in the SOAP domain:
Use the SOAP nodes and SOAP domain where possible;
see Web services: when to use SOAP or HTTP nodes.
Web services support conforms to the following open standards:
- SOAP 1.1 and 1.2
- SOAP Messages with Attachments
- MTOM
- HTTP 1.1
- WSDL 1.1
- WS-Addressing (new SOAP domain only)
- WS-Security (new SOAP domain only)
- WS-RM
- WS-MakeConnection
WSDL is also validated against the WS-I Basic Profile Version 1.1.
Conformance to the guidelines in this specification improves interoperability
with other applications.
