Introduction to EntireX CentraSite Integration

Web services created with EntireX can be published to CentraSite. CentraSite offers enhanced registry functionality, and also repository functionality that enables you to store web services artifacts and register interdependencies for impact analysis.

The information that is published to CentraSite is the EntireX web service, using JAXR.

The EntireX web services archive (AAR file) is stored in CentraSite's repository (WebDAV) according to the folder structure of the Eclipse project containing the service. The WSDL of the service is stored at the same location. This is the WSDL that is displayed in the browser after deployment.
