WSRP Producer

WSRP Producers provide WSRP services for Consumers who integrate them into their portal for their users.

A WSRP Producer is a portal that provides WSRP services. Consumer portals can then consume these WSRP services as remote portlets.

The Producer part of the WSRP implementation in the portal provides an additional entry point into the Producer portal, enabling the portal to provide portlet applications or single portlets as WSRP services. The Producer works as the "server" of the WSRP communication.

A WSRP Producer provides one or more portlets as WSRP services for invocation by Consumer applications that reside at remote sites. The Producer portal receives the requests from the Consumer portal to the WSRP service. The Producer portal generates the markup accordingly and sends it to the Consumer portal, where it is displayed for the user who started the request.

To allow communication between the Producer portal and the Consumer portal, the Producer provides a set of interfaces to the Consumers. These interfaces are defined by the WSRP standard. The Producer can expose some or all of these interfaces to the Consumers as appropriate. The Producer describes these WSRP interfaces in the Web Services Description Language (WSDL) document. The WSDL document provides general technical information about how the Consumer connects to the Producer and the related infrastructure.
