An inbound service is a web interface to a service provided internally (that is, a service provided by our own organization and hosted in a location that is directly available through a service integration bus destination). To configure a locally-hosted service as an inbound service, we first associate it with a service destination, then we configure one or more ports (each with an associated endpoint listener) through which service requests and responses are passed to the service. We can also choose to have the local service made available through one or more UDDI registries.
