Module 13 Consuming and Creating XML Web
Services

• BCS2203 Web Application Development

Overview

• The Internet enables better communication in and
  between companies by providing fast access to
  information. However, for many companies,
  browsing data-driven pages does not adequately
  satisfy their business requirements. Programmable
  Web sites that directly link organizations,
  applications, and services are a better solution.
  The XML Web service provides this direct linking
  of applications. By using XML Web services, you
  can expand the functionality that your Web site
  offers to users.
• This module describes how to call an XML Web
  service directly by using a browser and by proxy
  from a Web Form. It also explains how to create
  and publish XML Web services by using Microsoft
  Visual Studio 2008.
