WebSphere Application Server V7.0: Concepts ... - IBM Redbooks

► SCA Web Services Binding V1.0
This specification defines how an SCA service can be made available as a
Web service and how an SCA reference can invoke a Web service.
► SCA EJB Session Bean Binding V1.0
Session bean bindings satisfy the need to expose EJBs as SCA services and
to expose SCA services to clients based on the EJB programming model.
Note: As required by the SCA Assembly Model V1.0 specification, the feature
pack for SCA also provides support for SCA bindings (also known as SCA
default bindings).

Application packaging and management
WebSphere Application Server V7.0 Feature Pack for SCA adds support for
deploying SCA applications to the application server. Both JAR and WAR files
are supported.
Components that include service definitions must be packaged in a JAR file and
deployed as assets for business-level applications.
SCA WAR files can be deployed as well, provided that they do not expose
services over any binding type. WAR files must be deployed as WebSphere
enterprise applications.
The feature pack also provides support in the Integrated Solutions Console, and
for the wsadmin command tool, to install, delete, start, and stop SCA applications.
