The registry is based on three document types:
- The "Service" doctype represents the specifications/documentation of a single service.
- "Service API" is an aggregation of services. In the case of SOAP services, it can store and parse a WSDL file.
- "Appli Impl" stands for an application, i.e. the services root. It is called "application implementation" in contrast to "business application" (technical, concrete vs business-oriented information).
The registry arborescence is made to reflect the different aggregations : Applications contain APIs, and APIs contain either Services or other, lower level APIs.
You can navigate through the documents using differents navigations trees (see the tabs on the left). They represent the idea of showing the model from different points of view to different user profiles:
- Navigation by Application, For the business users :
- Navigation by Server: For the administrators
- Navigation by Service: For the architects
