Can SOAP be a solution for normal client-server or n-tier applications.
I mean is SOAP applicable for scenarios of  more than just a simple RPC call ?

SOAP = XML + HTTP

SOAP is a simple and platform independent way to do RPC.

Web Programming becomes much easier using SOAP as u can activate objects
at the server side from ur client in a very easy way.

rule out SOAP in these scenarios:
1. If u are transfering lots of binary data.
2. If u have a bandwith problem.

cosider SOAP in this scenario:
1.U have a distributed system and want to call one object(residing on one
server) from the other objects(residing on other/same serverS)
2.u are mainly passing text data.
3.Platform independence and application interoperability is a concern.
