SOAP is a mean of communication among different kinds of technologies and platforms also it has following (business/technical reasons) advantages -


~Using SOAP over HTTP allows for easier communication through proxies and firewalls than previous remote execution technology.

~SOAP is versatile enough to allow for the use of different transport protocols. The standard stacks use HTTP as a transport protocol, but other protocols are also usable (e.g., SMTP).

~SOAP is platform independent.

~SOAP is language independent.

~SOAP is simple and extensible.
