Explanation

WS-BPEL (Web Services Business Process Execution Language) was specifically designed as a standard for orchestrating SOAP-based Web services into composite business processes, making option A correct. It defines execution logic - sequences, parallel flows, fault handling, and compensation - that coordinates multiple SOAP services as a unified workflow.

Option B is wrong because this is not a false statement; WS-BPEL is precisely the W3C/OASIS-endorsed standard for service composition in the SOAP/WSDL ecosystem.

Memory tip: Think of the acronym - BPEL = Business Process Execution Language. "Execution" signals it runs (composes/orchestrates) services, and "WS-" confirms it targets Web Services (SOAP). If a question mentions SOAP + composition logic, WS-BPEL is your answer.
