Providing WSRP services as a Producer

After you have prepared the portal as a Producer portal, you can provide your portlets as WSRP services. This makes them available to Consumers. They can integrate them into their Consumer portals and use them as remote portlets. You can also withdraw portlets from WSRP service. This cancels the services provided by the portlets. Consumer portals can then no longer use them.

To provide or withdraw a portlet for WSRP services, you can use either of the following options:

• The portal administration portlet Manage Portlets.

• The portal XML configuration interface. For more information about the XML configuration interface refer to the appropriate topics.

Customization of the Producer portlets by Consumer portal users can be exported by using the XML configuration interface.
