Guide to choosing between REST vs SOAP services?

Question

Does anyone have links to documentation or guides on making the decision between REST vs. SOAP? I understand both of these but am looking for some references on the key decision points, eg, security, which may make you lean towards one or the other.

Answer 1

Google first hit seems pretty comprehensive.

I think the problem here is there are too many advocates of one or the other, may be better of googling and getting more of a handle of the pro's/con's yourself and making your own decision.

I know that sounds kinda lame, but ultimately these sort of design decisions fall down to the developer/architect working on it, and 99% of the time, the problem domain will be the deciding factor (or at least it should be), not a guide on the net.
