Web Services Interoperability

I have few fundamental questions

Question#1

• With WCF you can expose a service as HTTP/TCP/MSMQ binding
• Similar to this do we have any equivalent solution in Java platform for exposing service with different bindings

Question #2

• i have worked on .NET 2.0 ASMX service and consumed 开发者_开发百科the same using .NET client
• What are interoperability aspects that we need to consider if I need to consume this service with Java client

Question #1:

• WCF can expose service on multiple transports but only HTTP(S) is interoperable
• Java APIs also can expose SOAP service over different transport. For example SOAP services can be exposed over JMS. JAX-WS has extensibility points to provide custom transports. It is all about APIs because SOAP is independent on the transport (in contrast to REST which works only over HTTP).

Question #2:

• ASMX services can conform to WS-I Basic Profile 1.1 which is considered as interoperability minimum. I guess all Java SOAP APIs can consume these services.
