Web Services Review

Short for Simple Object Access Protocol, is one of the most common and elementary protocol that is used for exchanging over a computer network of XML-based messages. They normally use the HTTP/HTTPS which forms the framework upon which abstract layers can be built upon. This system began beta testing in 2003 making it younger than UDDI.
It allows easier communication between proxies and firewalls than previous remote execution technology. It is also versatile enough to allow multiple transport protocols such as SMTP, etc. The only problem with the said system is that it is significantly slower than other middleware already in the market which makes industry a bit hesitant for it also has limitations on the amount of data that can be sent.
