What is axis2?

Axis2 is Apache’s Web services framework with two implementations Apache Axis2/Java and Apache Axis2/C. As discussed earlier Web services are very good means of inter application communication. This communication is possible with the help of XML. SOAP protocol defines the schema for a message to be sent when using web services. SOAP engine is required to create and interpret SOAP messages. AXIS2 is such a SOAP engine.

Apache Axis2 supports both SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 and also has integrated support for the widely popular REST-style of web services. Apache Axis2 is more efficient, modular, and scalable than the older version Axis1.x. Axis2 provides many new features with enhanced functionality. Some of the main features are Speed, Low memory foot print, AXIOM, Hot Deployment, Asynchronous Web services, MEP Support, Flexibility, Stability, Component-oriented Deployment, Transport Framework, WSDL support, Add-ons, Composition and Extensibility.
