Web service applications

A Web service is defined by a WSDL definition, which describes both the logical interface of the service and its physical binding.

The broker can act as any of:
  • Web service provider
  • Web service client
  • intermediary
and typically sends and receives SOAP messages at runtime.

For information on using the message broker in conjunction with Web services technologies see Working with Web service applications.
