tools used

you can use Altove XMl spy, Stylus Studio, SOAP UI for sending/generating SOAP requests.

You can use 'wfetch' for sending/generating http requests.

differences

1)SOAP is ...to communicate WEB SERVICES..it support WSDL files...using XMLSpy you can send the request.

HTTP is...to communicate with WEB pages

2)SOAP in background uses XML + http

you expose outbound interface as a webservice and create a SOAP request to access it.

you send http request to ping a integration scenario directly at the integration engine.

3)SOAP
