What is the Difference b/w web servicess and HTTP and at what time we select which one.

Hi Venkat,

Webservice is a service which is used for a particular process.

In Webservice Comunication we use SOAP and HTTP.

We Use HTTP when the External Applications or Remote clients are want to Connct to Integration Server.In this case we dont require HTTP Adapter, the webservice application can directly communicate with IS.

So this is like performance Increment in the Interface running.

We use SOAP when we want to connect to External Applications or Remonte clients from XI.

Hi,

WebServices are based on XML standards i.e., open standard and platform neutral.

You can expose any application(built in any language) as a webservice provided your application platform has inbuilt Webservice Infrastructure capabilites.

HTTP is based on standard protocol defined W3C.
