One of the most commonly used technologies are [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_service Web Services], that are the exposure of business services to the external world, using a contract called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wsdl WSDL]. {{VULCON}} helps the user to expose [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterprise_service_bus ESB] services as {{GVWS}}, leaving the user the task to define data structures in order to interact with the external world. {{VULCON}} provides two wizards for creating new {{GVWS}}. The first one starting from an ESB service and creating the WSDL and the AAR to deploy ([[Bottom-up method]]), the second one, starting from a WSDL, creating ESB services for each choosen operation ([[Top-down method]]).
