Use Enterprise Metadata Discovery to build services
In addition to using enterprise metadata discovery to discover existing services, you can use it to build services that include integrated processes to exchange information with an email or a file system.
Version 1.2 of Enterprise metadata discovery includes enhancements for configurable data handlers, function selectors, and data bindings, and a way to build service descriptions with these configured artifacts and existing schemas. For information about implementing interfaces for technology-style adapters, see Enterprise Metadata Discovery interfaces and implementation for technology adapters.
