Administering service applications and service modules

Use the administrative tools to view and manage service applications and their associated service modules.

Before you begin

Deploy your service modules to the runtime environment.

About this task

A service module is a Service Component Architecture (SCA) module that provides services in the run time. When you deploy a service module to WebSphere® ESB, you build an associated service application that is packaged as an Enterprise Archive (EAR) file.

Service modules are the basic units of deployment and can contain components, libraries, and staging modules used by the associated service application. Service modules have exports and, optionally, imports to define the relationships between modules and service requesters and providers. WebSphere ESB supports a type of service module called mediation modules. Mediation modules allow you to change the format, content, or target of service requests.
