A web service is typically an application programming interface (API) or Web API that is accessed via Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and executed on a remote system, hosting the requested service. The Spring Framework is an open source application framework for the Java platform. Apache CXF is an open-source, fully featured, easy to use Web Services framework. The goal is to correctly configure an MVC controller to communicate with a web service using Spring and Apache CXF.
