Hence, this technology's design principles focus on interoperability and flexibility to give developers the ability to customize, reuse and enhance functionalities as well as non-functionalities such as security, transactions and reliable messaging. In particular, an effective Web Services customization must give application developers simple and expressive ways to program the changes they need without losing any capabilities available in the platform. We propose customization with Web Services Extensions and present the concept, its core mechanisms and its implementation on the STEP Framework, an open-source multi-layer Java enterprise application framework.
