IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository (hereafter called Registry and Repository) is the master metadata repository for service interaction endpoint descriptions. As the integration point for service metadata, Registry and Repository establishes a central point for finding and managing service metadata. Once service metadata is placed in Registry and Repository, visibility is controlled, versions are managed, proposed changes are analyzed and communicated, and usage is monitored. In the first paper, one explored Registry and Repository concepts and capabilities and the role of Registry and Repository throughout the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) life cycle. This paper provides an overview of Registry and Repository architecture and technical details that help one take advantage of Registry and Repository capabilities for advertising, finding services, managing and governing services.
