SOAP and REST

SOAP
REST
Only XML format is allowed for data transfer.
Multiple format like Plain Text, XML, JSON HTML
Stateless by default, but it’s possible to make a SOAP API stateful.
Stateless (no server-side sessions).
While SOAP supports SSL (just like REST) it also supports WS-Security which adds some enterprise security features.
Less Secure
Requires more bandwidth and computing power
Requires fewer resources.
