There are two types of web services:

  • SOAP Web Services: Runs on SOAP protocol and uses XML technology for sending data.
  • Restful Web Services: It’s an architectural style and runs on HTTP/HTTPS protocol almost all the time. REST is a stateless client-server architecture where web services are resources and can be identified by their URIs. Client applications can use HTTP GET/POST methods to invoke Restful web services.
