<h2>3.6. Web Services</h2>
<p>SOAP is a lightweight, extensible, XML-based protocol for information exchange in a decentralized,
distributed environment. Primarily, SOAP defines a framework for message structure and a message
processing model. SOAP also defines a set of encoding rules for serializing data and a convention
for making remote procedure calls. The SOAP extensibility model provides the foundation for a wide
range of composable modules and protocols running over a variety of underlying protocols such as HTTP.
</p>
<p>By Supporting the <a href="soap.html">Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)</a>, Virtuoso
enables you to integrate business processes within and across organization boundaries. Virtuoso's SOAP
Support implementation enables you to execute Virtuoso Stored Procedures over HTTP. This is a
significant component in any B2B development and implementation effort. Development is very
rapid and is directly incorporated within the database environment required for keeping B2B
processes running accurately.
