What is the WCF correspondent for Java?

Question

Is there a unique service centralizer like WCF for Java where I can create and host services for different media?

Change: It seems it has a different concept in the java world, is it called application server?

Answer 1

JAX-WS / Metro

• allows you to annotate your web service class and methods and generates a WSDL from those annotations, just like WCF.
• allows you to generate a service wsdl-first, just like WCF
• allows you to generate a web service client, just like WCF
• allows you to host your web service in any Java EE container. This is comparable to WCF's IIS hosting.
• allows you to host your web services using the Endpoint api. This is comparable to WCFs self-hosting.
• allows you to choose between SOAP or Fast InfoSet over HTTP or TCP protocols , like the WCF transport options . (Though I don't think it allows named pipes...)

So in many ways it corresponds to WCF. It is more focussed on Web Services than WCF is, though. Like the names say.

I have found some blog, it is pretty old, but it explained very well about java jax-ws and .net-wcf.

Hope this helps..!
