    The service Element is a DeployableItem that describes the deployment of a Web Service.

    A service is structured as a Targeted Chain represented with a Request Flow, a Provider and a Response Flow.

    A service may define an optional collection of Fault Flow's and typeMappings.

    The optional description attribute provides a means to directly relate the deployed Service with an external
    Service Description mechanism (such as WSDL).

    A Flow defines the sequential invocation of handlers and handler chains for a particular service.
    The are generally three distinct types of Flows supported by Axis: request flows, response flows and fault flows.

    The child elements are  aggregated together into a single handler chain of the specified type.  If the type attribute is
    not set, then the default Axis flow type handler is used (org.apache.axis.SimpleChain).

    The optional name attribute is usually used to qualify the chains for multiple fault flows defined within a faultScope.
