9.1 Business scenario

The document style Web service is equally applicable to the business scenario we described in Chapter 8, "Using RPC style Web services" on page 147. The development effort involved is more complex than RPC style, but document style provides some other advantages that make it an important alternative to RPC style. Document style provides lower coupling between the Web service requester and provider because requester and provider binding is reduced from stricter methods and parameters to more flexible documents.
