Hi Akhil,

SOAP is a protocol for exchanging XML-based messages over computer networks, normally using HTTP/HTTPS. SOAP forms the foundation layer of the web services protocol stack providing a basic messaging framework upon which abstract layers can be built.

As a layman's example of how SOAP procedures can be used, a correctly formatted call could be sent to a Web Service enabled web site - for example, a house price database - with the data ranges needed for a search. The site could then return a formatted XML document with all the required results and associated data (prices, location, features, etc). These could then be integrated directly into a third-party site.

There are several different types of messaging patterns in SOAP, but by far the most common is the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) pattern, in which one network node (the client) sends a request message to another node (the server) and the server immediately sends a response message to the client. SOAP is the successor of XML-RPC, though it borrows its transport and interaction neutrality and the envelope/header/body from elsewhere, probably from WDDX

1) Simple object access protocol (SOAP)

2) SOAP is used to interact with remote client.The SOAP adapter enables you to exchange SOAP messages between remote clients or Web service servers and the Integration Server or the PCK.

Check the following web-sites which give PDF & PPT docs on format of messages being exchanged:

we use SOAP adapter when we need to connect to remote system or use Webservices in these cases we use SOAP adapter

The SOAP adapter is written in Java and is responsible for the SOAP envelope around the real XML message. You can build/remove that envelope as well in the mapping and use instead http adapter. But standard for webservices is using SOAP adapter

The SOAP adapter enables you to exchange SOAP messages between remote clients or Web service servers and the Integration Server or the PCK.

In the SOAP adapter, you can specify security settings to be used to sign/verify the SOAP body. In addition, you can specify the standard to be used for signing/verifying the SOAP message.

To be able to send SOAP messages to the Integration Server/PCK, you must configure the sender SOAP adapter.

To be able to send SOAP messages from the Integration Server/PCK to remote clients or Web service servers, you must first configure the receiver SOAP adapter. The receiver adapter supports system acknowledgments but not application acknowledgments.

HI

SOAP Adapter

The SOAP Adapter provides a runtime environment that includes various SOAP components for the processing of SOAP messages from remote clients or Web services. This is required as XI communicates with a modified SOAP u2018with attachmentsu2019 which is not directly interoperable with SOAP.
