Catalog subsystem URLs
Catalog subsystem URLs include all logic and data relevant to a catalog, including categories, products and their attributes, items, and groupings of each, and any associations or relationships among them.
Product sets
Catalog subsystem URLs include all logic and data relevant to product sets.
ScheduledCatalogFileProcess
This URL adds the scheduler job to publish the catalog.

Reference
- WebSphere Commerce API reference
  WebSphere Commerce exposes two main programming APIs. The first and newest API is a REST interface, and most new classes are exposed here. The legacy Java API also contains new classes not suitable for REST, and can be browsed in Javadoc format.
- Cross-reference of data beans, EJB beans, and tables
  Data beans are grouped into several component groups.
- Cross-reference of commands, tasks, and tables
  URL commands, controller commands, task commands, view commands and tables are related to each other.
- Cross reference: Commands to beans to database tables
  Use this information when you are customizing a command and you want to know which tables are affected. You should also use this topic if you are modifying a table and want to know which commands and beans are affected.
- API changes between WebSphere Commerce Version 7.0.0.9 and WebSphere Commerce Version 8.0.0.0
  If you are migrating version 7.0 of WebSphere Commerce, review the API changes between releases.
- WebSphere Commerce database schema
  The WebSphere Commerce database model was designed for data integrity and optimal performance. WebSphere Commerce provides several hundred tables that store WebSphere Commerce instance data. To maintain data integrity, and to ease maintenance referential integrity, constraints are widely used in the database model. Indexes are used carefully on tables to avoid over-indexing and to provide a good balance between data retrieval and data manipulation activities (insert and update). The business rules are implemented at the application level rather than by using database trigger. Triggers, however, are used to facilitate data staging and optimistic locking. A limited number of SQL-based database stored procedures are used for data intensive activities.
- Payments subsystem
  In WebSphere Commerce, payment processing uses the Payments subsystem.
- Dynamic caching
  In general, caching improves response time and reduces system load. Caching techniques are used to improve the performance of World Wide Web Internet applications. Most techniques cache static content (content that rarely changes) such as graphic and text files. However, many websites serve dynamic content, containing personalized information or data that changes more frequently. Caching dynamic content requires more sophisticated caching techniques, such as those provided by the WebSphere Application Server dynamic cache, a built-in service for caching and serving dynamic content.
- Data Load utility configuration file schema
  The Data Load utility contains several configuration files. You can use the configuration file schema to understand and customize the data load configuration files.
- WebSphere Commerce web services
  WebSphere Commerce provides many web services.
- Utilities
  Utilities help you to accomplish administrative or configuration tasks, for example, loading data, publishing a store.

  - Messaging system URLs
    The following URLs relate to the Messaging system.
  - Order Management subsystem URLs
    The Order Management subsystem includes all logic and data relevant to placing, processing, and managing orders. The Order Management subsystem also deals with returns.
  - Scheduler URLs
    The server subsystem consists of functions that are associated with URLs that are run by the scheduler.
  - WebSphere Commerce Search URLs
    The starter stores consist of pages that are associated with URLs that are run by WebSphere Commerce Search. You can use the following URLs to invoke various WebSphere Commerce search tasks.
- Ant targets
  A WebSphere Commerce instance can be created from the command line. The command-line utility uses Apache Ant to create the objects required. The targets are divided into several high-level groups that correspond to the environment that is to be configured.
