Feature Categorization
Feature repository provided by WSO2 contains a number of features that can be installed into WSO2 Carbon based products. The logically related features have been categorized in the feature repository, to make it easier for the user to search and install the required features more effectively. These feature categories are grouped under products. As illustrated in the following screenshot, there are high level feature categories such as Application Server and Governance Registry. Under these product based feature categories, there are another set of feature categories based on the product features. The user has the option of installing either the whole product or only the required features of a product. The feature categorization can be seen on the Available Features page after selecting/adding the repository and thereafter, searching for features that are grouped by category.
