Technology: XML-based Web Services
Web Services
Built on industry standards, Web services provide a means for software to interoperate across programming languages, platforms, and operating systems. They provide a structured way to format data, a way to handle transactions, and a standard means to describe what the service does and make the service available to others.
XML
Extensible Markup Language or XML provides a way to structure data. By using a standard way to tag information, XML provides the foundation on which Web services are built.
