IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment V8.5 and V9.0, Core Administration — Question 30

Which of the following describes how communication occurs when a Web Services client sends a request to an application server?

Answer options

• A. Through SOAP over HTTP and passing through the web services engine
• B. Through SOAP over JMS and passing through the embedded HTTP server
• C. Through RMI over IIOP communication directly to the messaging engine within the application server
• D. Through SOAP over JMS communications directly to the messaging engine within the application server

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because it accurately describes the direct communication of SOAP over JMS with the messaging engine in the application server. Option A is incorrect as it mentions HTTP, which is not the protocol used for this scenario. Option B incorrectly states that the communication passes through an embedded HTTP server, which is not applicable here, while C refers to RMI over IIOP, which is not relevant to Web Services clients.
