IBM Software Group ® WSRP-UDDI Straw Man Richard Jacob WSRP-PFB SC

IBM Software Group | WebSphere software Publishing Producers – basic ideas  Publish WSRP Producer as a businessService  Categorize this businessService as being of type WSRP-Producer  Use simple approach to publish the URL of service-WSDL and then use the service’s DescriptionInterface for further discovery  At the beginning use an approach as simple as possible, perhaps with minimum amount of tModels and other structures needed.  Proposal should allow easy extension to the UDDI-WSDL documents

IBM Software Group | WebSphere software Publishing Producers – approach 1 Unchecked Categorization KeyValues would be Producer or Portlet, later might be even PortletApplication..tModelKey=… Type: wsdlSpec To indicate it implements the wsrp wsdl tModelKey=… keyName=“WSRP Type” keyValue=“Producer” Producer

IBM Software Group | WebSphere software Publishing Portlets – basic ideas  Publish Portlet as a businessService  Categorize this businessService as being of type WSRP Portlet  Need to publish the Portlet handle somehow  Need to reference the Producer the Portlet belongs to  This could be done in two ways: Either pointer to the Producer’s wsdl Or reference within the directory to the Producer entity (seems better for to me)  Try to keep it as simple as possible with minimum amount of tModels and other structures needed

IBM Software Group | WebSphere software Publishing Portlets – approach 1 Unchecked Categorization KeyValues would be Producer or Portlet, later might be even PortletApplication tModelKey=… keyName=“WSRP Type” keyValue=“Portlet” tModelKey=… keyName=“WSRP Producer Ref” kevValue=“Producer Business Service Key” Portlet Unchecked Categorization KeyValues would be the Producer’s businessService Key Note: same tModel as used for Producer categorization

IBM Software Group | WebSphere software Approach 1 – summary/questions/…  3 tModels used in total  No redundant information about wsdl, just stored on the producer entity (seems to be natural), Portlets refer to Producer  WSRP Type tModel  Is it sufficient for searching WSRP Producer/Portlets?  Could it be a checked categorization allowing only distinct values?  Producer’s bindingTemplate  tModelInstanceKey references the wsrp-wsdl tModel to indicate a wsrp impl  Do we need this if we have the categorization WSRP Type tModel?  It could be defined as UDDI-tn-v2, Appendix a (external wsdl documents) Here UDDI defines a WSDL Address tModel to indicate the accessPoint is not an actual access point but the service wsdl URL, do we need that? Contradiction to UDDI-WSDL proposals (v1 and v2) −We would have one tModel for the WSRP wsdl (containing 4 bindings/portTypes) −While UDDI defines that for each binding/porttype there should be one tModel… −Also UDDI says there must be one bindingTemplate for each portType used (don’t see really why in this case)  Producer Reference tModel  How easy is it to find the businessService entity in UDDI the Portlet businessService is pointing to?  Better ways to add such a reference?  This model could be easily extended to the WSDL-UDDI best practices/technical note proposals
