Embodiments of the invention include a computer-implemented process for identifying implicit services links, using service usage information, in service registries and repositories. Service registry and repository receives service access information for a service to form received information, creates a services access context object in real time from all received information or a selected subset of received information to form a created services access context object, and stores the created services access context object in a data structure to form a stored services access context object. The computer-implemented process further analyzes a set of stored services access context objects in real time to form a set of results, wherein the results are within a predefined certainty and sends the result to a requester. The set of results comprises a set of implicit soft links determined by usage information in the services access context objects, wherein the implicit soft links are implicit services links.
