What is a WSRP Producer?

A WSRP Producer offers locally deployed portlets for remote deployment. A remotely deployed WSRP Consumer Admin portlet can connect to the Producer, and can use the portlets offered by the Producer.

A portal can host multiple producers. The consumer can import remote portlets offered by a producer. Based on the portlets that you want to provide to WSRP consumers, you may create one or more producers. A producer can support registration or it does not require registration. If a producer supports registration, then consumers must register to work with the producer.
