Developing OpenWIS Harnesses - OpenWIS/openwis GitHub Wiki

OpenWIS can be integrated into a variety of environments through the use of harnesses. A harness is effectively an external system that implements a SOAP endpoint that OpenWIS is configured to consume.

Types Of Harnesses

OpenWIS currently supports 3 different types of harnesses.

• Dissemination Harnesses, which are responsible for performing email and FTP dissemination
• Local Data Source Harnesses, which can be used to publish data available from internal systems through OpenWIS (so called "local data")
• Subselection Parameter Harnesses, which can be used to display a subselection UI to the user to consume local data
