Coupled with a platform and language independent messaging protocol called SOAP

assembling previously built components from multiple Web services.

Enterprise Connector for J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA)

The Enterprise Connector for J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) enables developers of
JCA-compliant applications to deploy adapters as JCA resources. The connector is
supported on J2EE-compliant application servers, such as your BEA WebLogic Server.
The Connector for JCA is distributed as a standard Resource Adapter Archive (RAR) for
deployment to the application server. Thus, the connector can be used in systems that are
non-compliant, although services such as pooled connections are not available.
