How would your external client access your Web service(s)?
Shouldn't you consider things other than "only requirements"
such as:
+ RPC-style or Document-style?
+ If RPC-style is the choice, will your clients all agree to
write program, perhaps AXIS compatible client, to
communciate your Web service(s)?
+ Will your client be arbitrary prospectives in public? If so,
will you be able to predict how they will discover your
Web service(s)?
+ ...
But since you have mentioned that "only requirements"
are Java and AIX. Axis will do among many others.
