@SASScope("ALL") @BinaryCompatibilityOnly public interface MetadataSourceConfigurationInterface
Interface describing a metadata source from which a foundation service deployment can be obtained. The ServiceLoader will query this metadata source for a foundation services deployment.

Currently two metadata sources are supported:

  • SAS Metadata Repository
  • URL accessible source such as a file

Use the Foundation Services Manager plug-in to the SAS Management Console to administer an application's foundation services deployment configuration. This plug-in provides the capability to export an application's foundation services deployment configuration from a SAS Metadata Repository to a UTF-8 encoded XML file. This file serves two purposes:

  • import/export foundation services metadata to/from a SAS Metadata Repository
  • file source for use with deploying an application's foundation services
