Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for implementing an Information Management System (IMS) simple object access protocol (SOAP) gateway. The gateway extracts an identifier from a SOAP-based web service request received from a web service client and selects a correlation mapping based on the extracted identifier. The gateway builds a modified web service request, updated with parameters from the correlation mapping. The added parameters allow the gateway to direct the web service request to a specific IMS Connect software product instance, a specific IMS software product instance, a specific IMS application instance, and a specific datastore. The gateway also returns a web service response containing response values related to the original request to the SOAP enabled web service client.
