What is SOAP?
SOAP defines a way to move
XML messages from point A to point B.
Long definition
SOAP is a lightweight protocol intended for exchanging structured information in a decentralized, distributed environment.
It uses XML technologies to define an extensible messaging framework, which provides a message construct that can be exchanged
over a variety of underlying protocols.
The framework has been designed to be independent of any particular programming model and other implementation specific semantics.
SOAP defines a way to move XML messages from point A to point B providing a model for processing individual, one-way messages.
