Web services and WebSphere Commerce
A web service is an interface that describes a collection of operations that are accessible through the network by using standardized XML messaging.
Working with Web service feeds
WebSphere Commerce provides a RESTful framework that supports Web service feeds. Your site can use feeds to syndicate store information so customers can access that information on Web sites external to WebSphere Commerce. For example, you can let customers subscribe to a feed from an e-Marketing Spot that displays the Deal of the Week. In addition, WebSphere Commerce remote widgets display feed content to customers using this RESTful framework.
