hi all,
I have been assigned to a project where web services being used. I am in process of understanding webservices. While going through, I came to some unknown words AXIS . I have googled for finding role of AXIS in webservices. I found that its an implementation of the
SOAP. I want to ask , are there any other stuffs like AXIS which implements SOAP. If any , why AXIS preferred?
Also , I have very very basic question , why do we need web service? what purpose does it suffice in web application lifecycle?
Please put some light on above. It will be helpful for me to move/study/think ahead in right direction.
thanks in advance
