What Web Service standards does the Service Bus support?
Web Service technology must be based on generally accepted standards. As soon as you link up application modules developed in different programming languages on different hardware and in different systems with the business process using Web Services, you are faced with the very important questions of interoperability and adherence to prescribed standards. Conventional Internet standards are used for communication. The interface of a Web service is specified using WSDL, remote procedure calls are transmitted using SOAP, and Web Services are determined using UDDI. Although standards such as SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI have become the general norm, there is still much to be accomplished by standardization committees; SAP is contributing to some of these standardizations. Some standards are being newly developed while others are being developed further. Enhanced standards – such as security standards or additional protocols – are continuously updated and integrated into the Web Service Framework
