The WSO2 Governance Registry is a hub for managing data in a web-friendly and
community-enabled way. It was built with enterprise metadata for SOA in
mind, but really it's up to you - the WSO2 Governance Registry can hold any kind of
"stuff" including images, service descriptions, text files, office
documents... and every resource you put in the WSO2 Governance Registry becomes a center
for social activity.
Eschewing the complexity (and WS-* focus) of specs like UDDI, our
WSO2 Governance Registry uses the Atom Publishing Protocol (via Apache Abdera) to offer
a standard and a simple RESTful remote interface, which can be accessed
easily by custom code, feed readers, and browsers.
The WSO2 Governance Registry has been designed both to encourage "grass-roots" community
around your data and also to allow for IT-friendly governance. A full
feature list follows. We hope you'll find many uses for it, and that
you'll share them with us as we work to make it even better!
The WSO2 Governance Registry is available under the
Apache Software License v2.0,
and can be either used as a complete product or used in combination with components of
other WSO2 products. User specific components, extensions or UIs to the Registry can be
easily added as Carbon components.
