Subtopics
- Bus-enabled web services: Frequently asked questions
A set of frequently asked questions about service integration bus-enabled web services are collected together in this topic.- Planning your bus-enabled web services installation
Consider how the environment will be configured to support service integration bus-enabled web services. Determine which of the bus-enabled web services roles you want each server to perform.- Endpoint listeners and inbound ports: Entry points to the service integration bus
An endpoint listener is a web service-enabled entry point to one or more service integration buses. An endpoint listener carries requests and responses between web service clients and buses.- Outbound ports and port destinations
A set of outbound ports and associated port destinations provides the mechanism through which an outbound service communicates with the externally-hosted target web service.- Service integration technologies and JAX-RPC handlers
A JAX-RPC handler is a Java class that performs a range of handling tasks.For example: logging messages, or transforming their contents, or terminating an incoming request. Handlers monitor messages at ports, and take appropriate action depending upon the sender and content of each message.- Non-bound WSDL
When developing a client application following best practices, we can develop against a WSDL document containing only a port type definition, and no specific bindings or port addresses. Such a WSDL document is known as a non-bound WSDL document.- UDDI registries: Web service directories that can be referenced by bus-enabled web services
The UDDI specification defines a way to publish and discover information about web services. UDDI registries use the UDDI specification to publish directory listings of web services.- SOAP with attachments: A definition
- Operation-level security: Role-based authorization
