Synapse is the way to go for this scenario. You may also wanna look at WSO2 ESB [1] which is built on top of Synapse and is available under the Apache License. Is it possible to embed synapse into axis2? Actually synapse embeds Axis2. But the reverse is also possible to deploy synapse as a Axis2 module. > > > Additionnaly, does synapse perform such proxying (I might ask this on > synapse mailing list, but we never now, someone might have the answer)? Yes it supports proxy services. Thanks, Keith. [1] http://wso2.org/projects/esb/java > > > thanks in advance for your help. > > Pierre > -- Keith Chapman Senior Software Engineer WSO2 Inc.
