Deploying web services using the IBM MQ transport for SOAP

Deploy a web service to one of a number of different server environments and connect to it using IBM MQ transport for SOAP.

Before you begin

Develop a web service and test it using SOAP over HTTP in the target environment.

We can deploy a web service to run with IBM MQ transport for SOAP in a number of different SOAP run time environments. We can deploy a service to Axis 1.4 using only the software installed with IBM MQ. For the other run time environments, you must install additional software.

You are not restricted to running IBM MQ transport for SOAP to the servers for which there are deployment instructions. Use the instructions to deploy a service to one of the listed environments.

Note: Some integrated environments offer SOAP over JMS using the W3C recommended JMS SOAP binding, as well as the IBM MQ transport for SOAP binding. Releases of IBM MQ, up to and including 7.0.1.2, support only the IBM MQ transport for SOAP binding. From 7.0.1.3 onwards we can deploy Axis2 clients using a URI that conforms to the W3C candidate recommendation for SOAP over JMS.
