What is the difference between XML and SOAP? I’ve been reading some introductory articles

  • 0

What is the difference between XML and SOAP? I’ve been reading some introductory articles about SOAP but I am very confused. This is the first time I am reading about SOAP so maybe that’s natural.

Could somebody please explain to me what SOAP is and what it is used for? Maybe give me some examples of its usage?

    Wikipedia has a wonderful article, including a good example.

    SOAP, originally defined as Simple Object Access Protocol, is a protocol specification for exchanging structured information in the implementation of Web Services in computer networks.

    A really good practical example:

    As a layman’s example of how SOAP procedures can be used, a SOAP message could be sent to a web-service-enabled web site (for example, a house price database) with the parameters needed for a search. The site would then return an XML-formatted document with the resulting data (prices, location, features, etc). Because the data is returned in a standardized machine-parseable format, it could then be integrated directly into a third-party site.
