'''Web data services''' <ref>InfoWorld (June 22, 2009), [http://www.infoworld.com/d/developer-world/kapow-focuses-web-data-services-600 Kapow Focuses on Web Data Services.]</ref> refers to [[service-oriented architecture]] (SOA) applied to data sourced from the [[World Wide Web]] and the Internet as a whole. Web data services enable maximal mashup, reuse, and sharing of [[structured data]] (such as relational tables), semi-structured information (such as Extensible Markup Language (XML) documents), and [[unstructured information]] (such as [[RSS]] feeds, content from [[web applications]], commercial data from online business sources).
In a Web data services environment, applications may subscribe to and consume information, provide and publish information for others to consume, or both. Applications that can serve as a consumer-subscriber and/or provider-publisher of Web data services include [[mobile computing]], [[web portals]], [[enterprise portals]], online [[business software]], [[social media]], and [[social networks]].<ref>Reuters (June 23, 2009), [http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS113076+23-Jun-2009+PRN20090623 How Data-Driven Enterprise Applications Are Built]</ref> Web data services may support business-to-consumer and business-to-business information-sharing requirements. Increasingly, enterprises are including web data services in their SOA implementations, as they integrate mashup-style user-driven information sharing into [[business intelligence]], [[business process management]], [[predictive analytics]], [[content management]], and other applications, according to industry analysts.<ref>Cloud Computing (June 23, 2009) [http://danagardner.sys-con.com/node/1012701 Web Data Gains Some Due Respect.]</ref>
