Thanks Thomas! "You've come to the right place to find out about Web Services and XML within the .NET Framework. This section of GotDotNet will have information on the core specifications, ranging from SOAP to WSDL and beyond. "
- SOAP Routing Protocol
SOAP Routing Protocol (SOAP-RP) is a simple SOAP-based protocol for routing SOAP messages over a variety of protocols like TCP, UDP, HTTP etc. It can be used for one-way messaging, two-way messaging like request/response as well as peer-to-peer conversations, etc.
- DIME
Direct Internet Message Encapsulation (DIME) is a lightweight, binary encapsulation format that can be used to encapsulate multiple application defined entities or payloads of arbitrary type and size into a single message construct.
It is used by SOAP-RP as the encapsulation mechanism when exchanged directly over TCP or UDP in order to support encapsulation of attachments to the SOAP-RP message as well as to provide efficient message delimiting.
- XLANG
XLANG is the XML business process language used in BizTalk Server. This proven language provides a way to orchestrate applications and XML Web services into larger-scale, federated applications by enabling developers to aggregate even the largest applications as components in a long-lived business process.
