NonStop SOAP for Java runs on a NonStop server and allows a Simple Object Access

Protocol (SOAP) client to communicate with NonStop Java classes and NonStop

Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) as shown in Figure 1-1. NonStop SOAP for Java allows

Java-based services to be made available in a Web services environment.

NonStop SOAP for Java implements Apache SOAP version 2.2. Apache SOAP is an

open-source implementation of SOAP version 1.1 and the SOAP Messages with

Attachments specifications in Java. Apache SOAP is developed by the Apache SOAP

community. Apache SOAP also provides a client library to invoke SOAP services

available remotely or as a server-side tool to implement SOAP accessible services.
