This section describes the Configuration Web Service.
About the Configuration Web Service
The Configuration Web Service provides an interface that allows ergonomic interaction with both the Oracle Endeca Server configuration and record schema.
Loading an attribute schema
You can use the Configuration Web Service to load the schema for your standard and managed attributes.
Loading configuration documents
You can use the Configuration Web Service to load the XML configuration documents to the data domain's configuration.
Performance impact of schema and configuration changes
Changes to the schema and configuration can be made on an empty index (before data is loaded), or after the records have already been loaded into the Dgraph. Even though it is possible to change the schema for your records after the records have been loaded, such a change is associated with performance impact.
Using the Configuration Web Service in Integrator
The Configuration Web Service lets you perform operations with the schema and configuration documents. All of these operations are supported in Integrator, which uses the Configuration Web Service requests.
