Deploying Web Services

You can deploy a web service:

• In a web application, packaged as a web archive (WAR) file. Using Admin Console, go to Application Server > Applications > Web Applications, then click Deploy.

• In an enterprise Java Bean (EJB), packaged as an EJB-JAR file. Using Admin Console, go to Application Server > Applications > EJB Modules, then click Deploy.

A web service can also be implemented by a POJO (plain old Java Object). Deploy a POJO web service using the auto-deploy feature by dragging and dropping it into the auto-deploy directory. Application Server will automatically generate the appropriate deployment descriptor files and deploy the web service.

In Admin Console, you can view a list of deployed web services under Application Server > Web Services | General.

You can also use the deploy(1) command to deploy a web service.
