Thomas,
I consider SOAP to be an XML messaging protocol, so (at least
for me) "messaging vs. SOAP" does not "make sense". Also, what do you
mean by "messaging company"? Are you referring to some sort of
outsourced messaging "service"?
Kind Regards,

Subject: [xml-dev] ( Slightly off
topic ) JMS and other messaging
I am a big fan of messaging since it seems to hide entire
implementations
from the calling routine. I
believe this is a competitor to soap.
Anyway. Does any one here use XML and messaging?
Also there seems to be people that are scared to use messaging
with the
following criticism:
1) extra layer
2) slow
3) what if the messaging company goes out of business.
for 1 I actually think it is a plus many times
2) It may slow something down but at the same time may help
when trying to
scale something since it facilitates
throwing hardware at a bottleneck
3) I think with some careful engineering one can create a very
light layer
that hides all of the messaging
implementation. If one would need to swap
out
the messaging API then it should be just a matter of changing one small
layer of code.
For example. Create your own message like objects and
then in a layer
translate these objects into a
message.
I would like to hear your thoughts on messaging ... also
messaging vs. soap.
