# Services Window

The Services window is the main entry point to your runtime resources. It shows a logical view of important runtime resources such as the servers, databases, and web services that are registered with the IDE.

The following table lists the icons and descriptions of the runtime resources as they appear in the Services window. You can right-click the resource nodes and sub-nodes to open context-sensitive popup menus that list commands that you can run on the node.

Element | Description
--- | ---
Databases | Expand the node to view the databases, database connections and database drivers that have been added to the IDE.
Web Services | Expand the node to view the web services that are registered with the IDE. You can drag and drop web service operations from this list into PHP applications to create PHP RESTful web service clients. You can also use web services in this list to create Java Jersey RESTful web service clients. This section of the Services window is also called the Web Services Manager. You can register a web service with the IDE if you have the URL of the service's WSDL or WADL file. Right-click the Web Services node and select Add Web Service.
Servers | Expand the node to view all the servers currently registered with the IDE. Any servers installed during the IDE installation process are automatically registered with the IDE. Use the IDE to register all other servers.
Hudson Builders | Lists the Hudson instances that have been added to the IDE.
Task Repositories | Expand the node to view the task repositories that have been added to the IDE.

Other nodes may appear, depending on the modules that are installed in the IDE.
