Characteristics[edit] SOAP can form the foundation layer of a web services protocol stack, providing a basic messaging framework upon which web services can be built.
This XML-based protocol consists of three parts: an envelope, which defines what is in the message and how to process it, a set of encoding rules for expressing instances of application-defined datatypes, and a convention for representing procedure calls and responses. Understanding Tivoli Access Manager for WebSphere Application Server. J2EE Security provides a mechanism called EJBRoles that can be used to provide security for applications running in J2EE-compliant application servers, including WebSphere Application Server.
Use of EJBRoles requires that users, or groups of users, be mapped to EJBRoles so that WebSphere can perform security checks when applications are running. It is common to find several WebSphere environments in a large organization. Management of EJBRoles across these environments can become complex and expensive.
