Web Services

Web services are services deployed on internet.Web services use standard network and application interfaces and protocols.Web services expose their capabilities to client application not their implementation which makes it platform independent and makes it compatible with client applications.

Web services cut down cost by focusing on value added contributions and uses third party applications.It reduces errors from complex large monolithic application and also reduces time-to-market. The technology that form the foundation of web services are SOAP,WSDL and UDDI.
 
web services uses XML based language like WSDL to describe services.WSDL  is a client application that determines location of remote web services and describes how to access and use each functions.

The protocols were developed to leverge XML and information exchange. Web Services uses SOAP protocol which  uses XML-based mechanism for information exchange between application within a distributed environment.
