Web Services Descriptor Language
WSDL stands for Web Services Description Language. It is an XML-based language used to describe web services, including the methods available, input/output parameters, and how to access the service. It enables different systems to understand and interact with each other's web services.
WSDL is an XML-based format used to describe the operations, message formats, and endpoints that a web service exposes, so it stands for Web Services Description Language. The other options swap "Server" for "Services" or use "Descriptor" instead of "Description," which are not the standard, official terms used by the W3C specification.
