Chapter 11. Using MTOM to Process Binary Content

Enabling MTOM support allows your endpoints to consume and produce messages that contain binary data.

Overview

SOAP Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) specifies an optimized method for sending binary data as part of a SOAP message using the XML-binary Optimized Packaging (XOP) packages for transmitting binary data. The FUSE Services Framework binding supports the use of MTOM to send and receive binary data. MTOM support is enabled on an endpoint by endpoint basis.

Configuring an endpoint to support MTOM

As shown in Example 11.1, you configure an endpoint to support MTOM by setting its mtomEnabled attribute to true.
