JAX-WS

JAX-WS, or Java API for XML Web Services, is a technology used in Java programming to create web services that allow different applications to communicate over the internet. It enables developers to build applications that can send and receive data in XML format, which is a standard way to represent structured information. JAX-WS simplifies the process of building services that follow the SOAP protocol, ensuring that systems, regardless of their underlying technology, can interact effectively and securely. Essentially, it helps make software work together by providing a clear way to send and receive requests and responses over the web.
