Configuring MTOM Streaming for a Web Service Descriptor
Integration Server supports streaming the SOAP attachments based on the MTOM/XOP standards for both inbound and outbound messages. The configuration and setup that you need to perform to implement MTOM streaming differs based on the type of web service descriptor to use streamed MTOM attachments and whether you want to stream fields in inbound SOAP messages and/or in outbound SOAP messages.
The following sections describe configuration and setup for using MTOM streaming for a web service descriptor:
* Using MTOM Streaming for Service First Provider Web Service Descriptors
* Using MTOM Streaming for WSDL First Provider Web Service Descriptors
* Using MTOM Streaming for Consumer Web Service Descriptors
Note:
If you use WS-SecurityPolicy, and the field that is to be streamed is also being signed and/or encrypted, Integration Server cannot use MTOM streaming because Integration Server needs to keep the entire message in memory to sign and/or encrypt the message.
Note:
You can process streamed MTOM attachments in service handlers. However, be aware that once a handler has read data from a streamed MTOM attachment, it is no longer available to subsequent handlers.
