Communication between the Producer and Consumer portals
The WSRP standard defines the communication interfaces between
the Producer portal and the Consumer portal.
The Consumer portal requires information about
a WSRP Producer in order to configure communication before consuming WSRP
services. This includes the following information:
- The WSDL (Web Services Description Language) document. It is a service
description document and provides the following information:
- It describes the WSRP services that the Producer provides.
- It defines the WSRP interfaces that the Producer uses.
- It provides technical information, such as the service endpoint addresses.
- The WSRP service description of the Producer. This provides information
about various capabilities, aspects, and properties of the Producer.
- The configuration of the Producer portal. This includes the security configuration
for WSRP services on the Producer portal.
After receiving the required information from the Producer, the
Consumer configures the Consumer portal accordingly before consuming the WSRP
services as remote portlets. For example, if the Producer portal provides
security for WSRP, the Consumer portal must have the same security setup for
WSRP.
Depending on the overall WSRP setup, the Consumer might in turn
provide information to the Producer.
