The implementation and invocation of asynchronous Web services is important to application development. UIs, which expose functionalities of Web services, have become increasingly interactive. As a result, asynchronous invocations and implementations have become more useful and effective, ultimately helping provide a better overall user experience. This article gives you an overview of different patterns for asynchronous scenarios in Web services and provides insight into how to implement them with Apache Axis2.

SOAP applications often have to deal with more than just simple messages. The payload for a SOAP message can often include a word processing or PDF document, image, or other binary file. This article by Michael Galpin on TheServerSide.com explains how to use the Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) to send and receive these messages using WSO2 Web Services Application Server (WSAS)
Rampart/C is the security module of the Apache Axis2/C web services engine. The following tutorial by Kaushalye Kapuruge will guide you on how to configure Rampart/C in order to satisfy different security requirements in SOAP message exchanges.
Stefan Tilkov posed a number of questions to the lead developers of these stacks – Paul Fremantle (Axis2), Dan Diephouse (CXF), Arjen Poutsma (Spring Web Services), Thomas Diesler (JBossWS) and Kohsuke Kawaguchi (Metro) – about their design goals, their approach towards Java and Web services standards, data binding, accessing XML, interoperability, REST support, and framework maturity
From release 1.3 onward Axis2/Java has support for Fast Infoset (FI) encoding of XML messages. It has the capability to FI encode SOAP messages as well as POX (Plain Old XML) messages.
ADB is a light weight data binding framework specially developed for use with Apache Axis2. An introduction to ADB and the basic structure of the ADB generated code was discussed in the article ADB Generated Code in Apache Axis2 [1] This article by Amila Suriarachchi succeeds the previous one and elaborates the schema support currently available with ADB.
Samisa Abeysinghe, current project lead of the Apache Axis2/C gives to you a detailed descriptions on customizing the endpoint address format of hosted services via Axis2/C, the Web services engine for providing and consuming Web Services in C.
