This is the home page for the WSO2 Mashup Server space.
The WSO2 Mashup Server is a platform for creating, deploying, and consuming Web services in the simplest fashion possible. It provides:
- Support for consuming and deploying services using dynamic scripting languages
- Trivial deployment and redeployment
- Automatic and UI-based generation of Web services artifacts (e.g. wsdl, schema, policy)
- A set of gateways to a variety of information sources, including SOAP and POX/REST Web services, as well as plain old Web pages.
- Human-consumable results through a variety of user interfaces - including web pages, portals, email, instant messenger, sms, etc.
