Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to techniques for automatically processing services in a service-oriented architecture. More specifically, services that are not already stored in a database are processed and then stored in a database using a service contract discovery process. The service contract discovery process can be performed when (1) a server provides service to a client computer; or (2) a server performs a scanning process to locate services that are not already stored in the database.
