The WSTransaction default policy sets are based on the WS-Transaction
specification and provide transactional integrity for web services. The WSTransaction
default policy sets include the WSTransaction policy set and the SSL WSTransaction
policy set.
You can use the WSTransaction default policy sets to make your SOAP over
HTTP-based web services interoperable and coordinate atomic transactions or
business activities without writing custom code. Use the WSTransaction policy
set or the SSL WSTransaction policy set as provided with the application server.
To customize the policy sets, you must first copy the policy set, and then
configure custom policy settings and bindings to meet your needs.
The WSTransaction default policy sets are:
- WSTransaction
- Use this policy set to coordinate distributed transactional work atomically
and interoperably, by using the WS-AtomicTransaction specification. Also, use
this policy set to coordinate loosely coupled business processes that are
distributed across the heterogenous web service environment, with the ability
to compensate actions if a failure occurs in the business activity, by using
the WS-BusinessActivity specification.
- SSL WSTransaction
- Use this policy set to coordinate distributed transactional work atomically,
interoperably and securely, by using the WS-AtomicTransaction specification and
SSL Transport security. Also, use this policy set to coordinate loosely coupled
business processes, with the ability to compensate actions if a failure occurs
in the business activity, securely, by using the WS-BusinessActivity specification
and SSL Transport security.
