Web service is basically a way of two devices, a client and a server, to communicate. The Client is basically the receiver of information from the server. To be honest, there wasn't much on the web on what exactly it is, but this is all I could piece together. Hope this helps.
A server will receive connections from a client, and the client will usually receive some service from the server. When you're browsing web sites online, those web sites are hosted on servers. Your web browser acts as a client to connect to the server and interact with it.
Yes and no. There is a web based email client for Google Mail but the Google service will also talk to standard complying PC based client services.
A SOAP request is typically sent over HTTP or HTTPS from a client to a web service. The client constructs the SOAP message, which is an XML document, and encapsulates it within an HTTP request, including appropriate headers like "Content-Type." The request is then transmitted over the network to the web service's endpoint URL. Upon arrival, the web service processes the SOAP message, extracts the relevant data, and executes the corresponding operation before sending back a SOAP response.
For the internet; your web browser is the client and the web server is the server.
Gateway AntiVirus allows applications across the enterprise to check files for viruses by providing a soap-based virus scanning web service. Client applications attach files to SOAP messages and submit them to the Gateway Anti-Virus web service. The web service uses ClamAV to scan the attachments for viruses and it returns the results to the client. URL where you can find more info: http://gatewayav.sourceforge.net/ Dan Schenker
