-<h1>Welcome to Apache Axis2</h1>
-
-<h2>XX Oct 2006 - Apache Axis2 Version 1.1 Released!</h2>

-
-<p>Apache Axis2 is the core engine for Web services. It is a complete
-re-design and re-write of the widely used <a
-href="http://ws.apache.org/axis/">Apache Axis</a> SOAP stack to build on the
-lessons learnt from Apache Axis.</p>
-
-<h3><em>Apache Axis Project in a Nutshell:</em></h3>
-
-<p>Apache Axis is an implementation of the SOAP ("Simple Object Access
-Protocol") <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SOAP">submission</a> to W3C.</p>
-
-<p>Extract from the draft W3C specification:</p>
-
-<blockquote>
- "SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchanging structured information in a
- decentralized, distributed environment. It is an XML based protocol that
- consists of three parts: an envelope that defines a framework for
- describing what is in a message and how to process it, a set of encoding
- rules for expressing instances of application-defined datatypes, and a
- convention for representing remote procedure calls and
-responses."</blockquote>
-
-<p>This project is a follow-on to the <a
-href="http://ws.apache.org/soap">Apache SOAP project</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Please see the <a href="http://ws.apache.org/axis/ref.html">Axis Reference
-Library</a> for a list of technical resources that should prove useful on
-this project.</p>
-
-<h3><em>Why Apache Axis2:</em></h3>
-
-<p>A new architecture for Axis was introduced during the August 2004 Summit
-in Colombo, Sri Lanka. This new architecture Axis2 is based on is more
-flexible, efficient and configurable in comparison to <a
-href="http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/architecture-guide.html">Axis1.x
-architecture</a>. Some well established concepts from Axis 1.x, like handlers
-etc., have been preserved in this new architecture.</p>
-
-<p>Apache Axis2 not only supports SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2, but it also has
-integrated support for the widely popular <a
-href="http://www.xfront.com/REST-Web-Services.html">REST style of Web
-services</a>: the same business logic implementation can offer both a WS-*
-style interface as well as a REST style interface simultaneously.</p>
-
-<p>Apache Axis2 is more efficient, more modular and more XML-oriented than
-the older version. It is carefully designed to support the easy addition of
-plug-in "modules" that extend its functionality for features such as security
-and reliability. <a
-href="http://ws.apache.org/axis2/modules/index.html">Modules</a> currently
-available or under development include:</p>
-<ul>
- <li><a
- href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=wsrm"
- target="_blank">WS-ReliableMessaging</a> - Supported by <a
- href="http://ws.apache.org/sandesha/sandesha2/">Apache Sandesha2</a></li>
- <li><a
- href="http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/specification/ws-tx/#coor"
- target="_blank">WS-Coordination</a> and <a
- href="http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/specification/ws-tx/#atom"
- target="_blank">WS-AtomicTransaction</a> - Supported by <a
- href="http://ws.apache.org/kandula/">Apache Kandula2</a></li>
- <li><a
- href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=wss"
- target="_blank">WS-Security</a> - Supported by <a
- href="http://ws.apache.org/axis2/modules/index.html">Apache
- Rampart</a></li>
- <li><a href="http://www.w3.org/Submission/ws-addressing/"
- target="_blank">WS-Addressing</a> -Module included as part of Axis2
- core</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>Apache Axis2 is built on <a
-href="http://ws.apache.org/commons/axiom/index.html">Apache AXIOM</a>, a new
-high performant, pull-based XML object model that was released two days
-ago.</p>
-
-<p>Axis2 comes with many new features, enhancements and industry
-specification implementations. The key features offered are as follows:</p>
-<ul>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Speed</strong> - Axis2 uses its
- own object model and StAX (Streaming API for XML) parsing to achieve
- significantly greater speed than earlier versions of Apache Axis.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Low memory foot print</strong>-
- Axis2 was designed ground-up keeping low memory foot print in mind.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>AXIOM</strong> - Axis2 comes with
- its own light-weight object model, AXIOM, for message processing which is
- extensible, highly performant and is developer convenient.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong><a name="Hot_Deployment">Hot
- Deployment</a></strong> - Axis2 is equipped with the capability of
- deploying Web service & handlers while the system is up and running.
- In other words, new services can be added to the system without having to
- shut down the server. Simply drop the required Web service archive into
- the services directory in the repository and the deployment model will
- automatically deploy the service and make it available for use.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Asynchronous Web
- services</strong> - Axis2 now supports asynchronous Web services &
- asynchronous Web services invocation using non-blocking clients and
- transports .</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>MEP Support</strong> - Axis2 now
- comes handy with the flexibility to support Message Exchange Patterns
- (MEPs) with in-built support for basic MEPs defined in WSDL 2.0.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Flexibility</strong> - The Axis2
- architecture gives the developer complete freedom to insert extensions
- into the engine for custom header processing, system management, and
- <em>anything else you can imagine</em>.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Stability</strong> - Axis2
- defines a set of published interfaces which change relatively slowly
- compared to the rest of Axis.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Component-oriented
- Deployment</strong> - You can easily define reusable networks of Handlers
- to implement common patterns of processing for your applications, or to
- distribute to partners.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Transport Framework</strong> - We
- have a clean and simple abstraction for integrating and using Transports
- (i.e., senders and listeners for SOAP over various protocols such as
- SMTP, FTP, message-oriented middleware, etc), and the core of the engine
- is completely transport-independent.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>WSDL support</strong> - Axis2
- supports the Web Service Description Language, version <a
- href="http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl">1.1</a> and <a
- href="http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl20/">2.0</a>, which allows you to easily
- build stubs to access remote services, and also to automatically export
- machine-readable descriptions of your deployed services from Axis2.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Add-ons</strong> - Several Web
- services specifications have been incorporated including <a
- href="http://ws.apache.org/wss4j/" target="_blank">WSS4J</a> for security
- (Apache Rampart), <a href="http://ws.apache.org/sandesha/"
- target="_blank">Sandesha</a> for reliable messaging, <a
- href="http://ws.apache.org/kandula/" target="_blank">Kandula</a> which is
- an encapsulation of WS-Coordination, WS-AtomicTransaction and
- WS-BusinessActivity.</p>
- </li>
- <li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in"><strong>Composition and
- Extensibility</strong> - Modules and phases improve support for
- composability and extensibility. Modules supports composability and is
- able to add support for new WS-* specifications in a simple and clean
- manner. They are however not <a href="#Hot_Deployment">hot deployable</a>
- as they change the overall behavior of the system.</p>
- </li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>We hope you enjoy using Axis2. Please note that this is an open-source
-effort. If you feel the code could use new features or fixes, or the
-documentation can be improved, please get involved and lend us a hand! The
-Axis developer community welcomes your participation.</p>

-to prefix the subject of the mail with [Axis2].</p>
