Deploying Data Services

Data Services offer a convenient mechanism to configure a Web service interface for data stored in data sources. Data sources such as relational databases, CSV files, Microsoft Excel sheets, Google spread sheets etc. can be easily service-enabled using the WSO2 Data Services Server. This data can be exposed and accessed in a secured (using WS-Security) and reliable (using WS-ReliableMessaging) manner, and is also available for mash-up with other Web services.

Data Services can be created and deployed in the WSO2 Data Services Server using several different methods as follows:

• Generate a Data Service Using a Carbon Data Source.
• Upload a Data Service Using a Configuration File.
• Create a Data Service Using Various Data Sources.

Also refer to the following:

• Work-In-Progress Service.
• Security Token Service.
