Hi all,
   I've seen in few commercial projects of which I was part recently, and here's the trend I saw,

1) Architects have been choosing to implement REST services instead of using Web Services (using SOAP & XML). Perhaps this is fine with a mobile app, but not always in other software applications.
2) Architects have been choosing JSON in general, instead of XML as a data exchange syntax. Perhaps this is because, JSON is simple to use instead of XML.


That fallacy is about to be exposed. JSON is "simpler" to use because up till now it has been used for simpler things.
