Web Services Registries and UDDI INFOSYS290-3 Web Services: Concepts, Design and Implementation
Agenda UDDI V3 Spec –Data structures –Standard APIs Mapping WSDL to UDDI Tools –.NET APIs for searching for services in UDDI –Systinet for publishing services to UDDI Extending UDDI for More Robust Information
Why Do We Need a Web Services Registry Web services are valuable because of standardized payloads and transport definitions –The value is creating a web service that is used by many clients Can’t happen unless the services are advertised to multiple consumers
What Does UDDI Contain? Businesses and other service providers Services they expose Bindings (locations) of those services Interfaces supported by those services
UDDI Entities businessEntity – provider of service businessService – collection of related services bindingTemplate - information necessary to use tModel - “reusable concept” such as –Interface –Protocol used by web services –Category publisherAssertion - relationship that business entity has with another businessEntity Subscription – request to be informed of particular changes
Core UDDI Entities businessService Interface tModel bindingTemplate businessEntity bindingTemplate Interface tModel
Design Principles Keys as unique identifiers –Publisher assigned (new in V3) –Or generated by registry Containment and references –Keys inside elements are either contained entities or references to other entities Collections –Simple structure (e.g. name) just listed multiple times –Complex structure has container element (e.g. contacts on business) Optional attributes –Empty not omitted –<keyedReference tModelKey=”uddi:uddi.org:ubr:categorization:iso3166” keyName=”” – keyValue=”US-CA”/>
businessEntity Structure
businessEntity Identifying Elements Uniquely identified by businessKey attribute discoveryURLs – y:sales:53 Returns XML document of type businessEntity – name –Multiple names to do languages or abbreviations – – – 日本生花店 – ニッポンセイカテン – NIPPON FLOWERS – NF –..... – description –Multiple descriptions potentially in multiple languages with xml:lang
businessEntity contacts <
businessEntity Identifiers and Categories Optional IdentifierBag – <keyedReference tModelKey=”uddi:uddi.org:ubr:identifier:dnb.com :d-u-n-s” keyName=”SAP AG” keyValue=” ” /> – Optional CategoryBag – <keyedReference tModelKey=”uddi:uddi.org:ubr:categorization:iso3166” keyName=”California, USA” – keyValue=”US-CA” /> –
UDDI Keyed References tModelKey – –Required reference to tModel representing the identifier system (e.g. company identifier codes, geographical categories) keyName –Optional description of the identifier keyValue –Required identifier within the overall system
Keyed Reference Groups <keyedReference tModelKey=”uddi:uddi.org:ubr:categorizatio n:wgs84:latitude” keyName=”WGS 84 Latitude” keyValue=” ” /> <keyedReference tModelKey=”uddi:uddi.org:ubr:categorizati on:wgs84:longitude” keyName=”WGS 84 Longitude” keyValue=” ” />
businessService
Uniquely identified by optional serviceKey attribute –Supplied by UDDI if not supplied by publisher Optional descriptions Optional categorizations in categoryBag One or more bindingTemplates Optional digital signature
bindingTemplates
bindingTemplate Uniquely identified by optional bindingKey attribute Optional serviceKey identifies service that contains this bindingTemplate descriptions accessPoint - network address (URL) hostingRedirector – deprecated categoryBag – e.g. can indicate that given template if status of “test” or production” tModelInstanceDetails -
tModelInstance Details
overviewDoc
tModels The “technical fingerprint” –tModel’s define unique identifiers for interfaces and interface specifications –Once tModel is published service advertises compliance with the spec represented by including the correct tModelKey Value sets –Categorization hierarchies –E.g. categoryBag and identifierBag have references to tModels with the system of values Find qualifiers –find_business uddi:uddi.org:findqualifier:sortbydateasc
tModel Structure
Exactly one non-empty name Zero or more descriptions Zero or more overviewDocs –useType=text –useType=wsdlInterface identifierBag –Contains tModelKey which uniquely identifies tModel (inconsistent?) –Other logical identifiers categoryBag –list of categories that describe specific aspects of the tModel
UDDI Keys Domain keys –uddi:acmewidgets.com UUID keys –uddi:4CD7E4BC-648B-426D EAAC8AE23 Derived keys –uddi:tempuri.com:fish:buyingservice Key generator keys –Uddi:acmewidgets.com:keygenerator
UDDI Standard APIs
UDDI APIs Inquiry Publication Subscription Security Custody Transfer Replication
Inquiry API Patterns Browse –find_xx Drill-down –Use browse then drill-down –get_xx Invocation –Use browse and drilldown and get bindingTemplate –Invoke from bindingTemplate
