The IBM Cúram Social Program Management inbound web service functionality supports the generation of RPC-style (Remote Procedure Call) web services and document-oriented web services (DOWS). In both cases:
- The request and response XML messages are transported using SOAP over HTTP.
- Every web service is described using a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file.
- The invocation scope for all IBM Cúram Social Program Management web services is Request Scope, the default. For each request to the web service, a new implementation instance is created to handle the request. The service instance will be removed after the request is complete.
