Design/Change-Time Policies
Design/change-time policies enable you to define and enforce organizational standards within your registry.
A design/change-time policy defines a series of actions that you associate with a registry event such as the addition, deletion, or modification of an object. When the specified event occurs, CentraSite executes the actions prescribed in the policy.
Among other things, you can use design/change-time policies to:
Initiate review and approval processes at specified points during the lifecycle of a registry object.
Validate metadata that users submit to the registry to ensure that it conforms to organizational standards and conventions.
Perform automated testing and quality checks.
Issue notifications to specified groups or individuals.
Trigger updates or other types of procedures on external systems.
For example, you might define a policy that performs a series of automated tests when a provider submits a Web service to your catalog. The policy would accept the service into the catalog only if the series of tests execute successfully.
Note: | Design/change-time policies are not available in the CentraSite Community Edition. |
For more information about creating design/change-time policies, see the CentraSite User’s Guide.
