Oracle SOA Suite 12c Build & Deploy REST and SOAP APIs

Understand how a SOA architecture builds business processes with loosely coupled services and an orchestrated API, delivering a single interface while decoupling front end from backend changes.

Explore XML, the extensible markup language, and how it enables platform-agnostic data exchange through readable tags and elements, with examples like name, age, and address.

JSON, or JavaScript object notation, is a lightweight data format with key-value pairs. It requires no markup, enabling compact API messages and easy reading.

Explore the differences between XML and JSON, highlighting validation, namespaces, parsing, and performance. XML enforces contracts with tags and namespaces, while JSON provides faster, simpler object structures without end tags.

Explore how the SOAP protocol enables platform-independent, XML-based messaging for inter-application communication over the internet. Understand envelope-based messages and operations that carry and receive data between applications.

Understand the rest protocol, representational state transfer, a stateless, client-server communication model. Learn how rest uses http verbs like post, get, and put to transfer data.

compare soap and rest by contrasting envelope-based xml messaging in soap with rest's flexible json payloads and resource-oriented, http-driven communication.
