Web Services Management Framework (WSMF) is a logical architecture for the management of resources, including Web services themselves, through Web services. This framework is based on the notion of managed objects and their relationships. A managed object essentially represents a resource and exposes a set of management interfaces through which the underlying resource could be managed. Similarly, relationships among managed objects represent relationships among underlying resources. To better support the various Web service-managed domains, WSMF is model neutral and is designed to be applied to many different domains with varying management requirements.
