I noticed the article on XMLHACK about Jon Bosak's presentation at XML 2000 -- see http://xmlhack.com/read.php?item=935 " the distinction between SOAP, the technology of choice for simple services, and ebXML, required to perform more mission-critical transactions, was made clear by Bosak. The final architecture of Bosak's vision is then: -XML as a core technology -UDDI to find the services we need -SOAP to perform the simple ones -ebXML for the most complex ones " I'm wondering if participants here agree with the notion that SOAP is for simple services and ebXML for mission critical transactions. If so, what about ebXML makes it more suitable for mission critical work? (Transaction processing support, maybe?) What about the objectives of the XML Protocols activity? I don't see anything in the Activity Statement or Charter one way or the other that would reflect on this issue. I realize that this opens up a can of worms, but it's an issue that I'm sincerely trying to make sense out of.
