| Abstract: |
The UDDI Discovery Standard was one of the original trio of Web Service protocols along with SOAP and WSDL. Now in Version 3, the UDDI specification might be expected to be relatively mature, however, there are still plenty of opportunities for a software vendor to integrate directory functionality into a more complete product that supports the requirements for an organization’s own Service Registry. In this report on the Systinet Business Services Registry we look particularly at how SOA governance can be improved through the provision of a set of lifecycle applications and services. |
| Backgrounder: |
The UDDI (Universal, Description, Discovery and Integration) data model and protocol is one of the three original core Web Service specifications. It defines the implementation of a standards-based registry by which Service Providers can publish their Services and Consumers can discover them. Because UDDI APIs are based on Web Services, it is straightforward to integrate the registry into tools or portals. Today UDDI based registries and directories are widely used in private, in-house environments. The original vision of UDDI envisaged more dynamic business systems that could autonomically discover and consume new Services, and while little use is made of this capability today, we fully expect that as SOA becomes the de facto approach to systems deployment, dynamic discovery services will become increasingly important. |
