Importing external services from registries
Registries such as the IBM®
WebSphere® Service Registry and Repository (WSRR) and
Universal Description Discovery and Integration (UDDI) contain artifacts like interfaces and
business objects, which can be shared within an enterprise. You can examine the artifacts at a
registry and retrieve the applicable artifacts for your service oriented architecture applications
by using the external service wizard.
Let's look conceptually at how artifacts are retrieved from registries. Using the external service wizard, you begin by connecting to a registry. This assumes you have set up access to your registries. If you have not set up access to your registries, you can either set up access separately or at the same time you try to make your first connection.
Once you have connected to a registry, you issue a query to discover your artifacts. Using editing and filtering features, you constrain the list of artifacts to just those you want. Finally, you import the artifacts. On importing, several helpful functions are available. For example, you can automatically separate inline schemas in a WSDL file into separate files.
