axis is it's own webapp, right?

if i wanted to take my current webapp and add one URL that acted as a web service, can i use axis for that? from the examples i've seen, axis runs as it's own webapp and you can have it manage multiple web services, but i'd like to 'embed' it (or something) in a current up-and-running webapp to enable a web service.

axis soap engine under the hood is implented as a servlet and hence you can add plugin axis engine to your own web application by just add few entries for the axis servlet in your web apps web.xml and copy the axis binaries to your web apps WEB-INF/lib folder.
