SOAP nodes in IBM WebSphere Message Broker V6.1, Part 1: SOAP node basics
SOAP nodes send and receive SOAP-based Web services messages, allowing a
message flow to interact with Web service endpoints. The messages might be plain
SOAP, SOAP with Attachments (SwA), or Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism
(MTOM). The nodes are configured using Web Services Description Language (WSDL) and
support WS-Security and WS-Addressing. This four-part series describes the SOAP
nodes, the logical tree for the new SOAP domain, and details of configuration and
runtime behavior. In this first article, you learn about the basic use of the nodes.
You should have a general familiarity with SOAP-based Web services and WSDL to
follow along with this article series.
