! A service or application owner, or service consumer can view a service and all service
information via a single screen
! A service registrar can bulk register services directly from a spreadsheet
! Out-of-the box (BIRT) reports provided to visualize key service information
! Simplify Service Consumption
! An application developer, service owner or service registrar can register an application as a
consumer of a service in less than 5 minutes
! Simplify Service Registry Setup
! A best-practice lightweight service management lifecycle has been added
! Loading and processing of service information is much faster

Today, the advantage of using both APIM and WSRR: APIM is supports both
SoE and SoR; WSRR is focused on SoR

Analytics
APIs and SOA are two sides of the same coin
There are many similarities – but one very important difference:
The objective most have been focusing on achieving with them
“How can I increase the
pace of innovation?”
“How can I increase the agility and
effectiveness of delivery?”
APIs
SOA
Reuse → Speed to deliver
Sharing → Expediency
Encapsulate → Less to learn
