User-Defined Web Services

Web Services lets you create Web services and execute SQL in Adaptive Server.

In addition to the Web methods provided by the Adaptive Server Web Services Engine, Web Services lets you create Web services and execute SQL commands in Adaptive Server Enterprise using either a Web browser or a SOAP client. These user-defined Web services use existing security and auditing control inherent in Adaptive Server Enterprise.

You can create a user-defined Web service with the create service command, which enables you to specify the SQL to be executed, create a first-class object for which permissions can be controlled with the grant command, and control whether the service can be invoked with a Web browser or a SOAP client. The ASE Web Services Engine automatically generates WSDL for user-defined Web services.
