ActiveSOAP is a lightweight & easily embeddable REST and SOAP stack based on StAX.
ActiveSOAP uses StAX (the Standard API for pull parsing) to implement the SOAP protocols and then it delegates to plugin Handler objects for the heavy duty processing of the XML payloads. This means that you only need to pay for what you need; use fast pull based event parsing or full data binding or DOMish APIs when they make sense.
