The Challenge is: how to take an architecture that has withstood the test of time …


Keep it from being marginalized…


Keep it from being washed away in the technology tidal wave …


And turn it into the centerpiece of a thriving global marketplace …


What is a Web Service?

Types of Web Services

Profile Specifications


Some Days Its Hard to Know Which Way is Up or Down


W3C Web Service Architecture Group - Definition of Web Service

A Web service is a software application

identified by a URI, whose interfaces

and bindings are capable of being

defined, described and discovered as

XML artifacts. A Web service supports

direct interactions with other software

agents using XML based messages via

internet-based protocols.

W3C – WSAG (draft): Extended Web Services Architecture

© W3C 2002.


Types of Web Services

• Simple– No side effects– Non-transactional– Context free– Sessionless, no roles– Minimal security– Call-response model– Point-to-point– Not developmentally

scalable

• Complex, e-Business– Impacts other steps– Transactional– Context sensitive,

ordering of steps– Session based,

personalized– Exactly once semantics– Sophisticated security– Messaging based– Scalable


Two Types of Web Services

• Remote Procedure Call (RPC)-based for supporting simple Web Services

• Conversational or Message-based Web Services for supporting loosely coupled asynchronous models, a key requirement for Enterprise-class Web Services.


Protocols for RPC-based Web Services• Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)

– SOAP v1.1 (IBM, MS, etc.) W3C Note - May 2000 – W3C XML Protocol WG started - Sep. 2000– SOAP v1.2 Working Draft - June 2002

• Web Services Description Language (WSDL)– WSDL v1.1 (IBM & MS) W3C Note - Mar. 2001– W3C WS Description WG started - Jan. 2002– WSDL v1.2 Working Draft - July 2002

• Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI)– UDDI.org v3.0 specification - July 2002– OASIS UDDI Spec. TC approved v2, v3 - Sep. 2002


Protocols for Message-Based Web Services• ebXML Messaging Services

– ebXML Messaging v2.0 TC Spec. – Mar. 2002– ebMsg. v2.0 OASIS Standard – Sep. 2002

• ebXML Collaboration-Protocol Profile– CPP/A v2.0 TC Specification – May 2002– CPP/A v2.0 submit for OASIS Standard – July 2002

• ebXML Registry – ebXML RIM v2.0 OASIS Standard – Apr. 2002– ebXML RS v2.0 OASIS Standard – Apr. 2002

• Business Transaction Protocol– BTP v1.0 TC Specification – May 2002


Protocols in Extended Architecture Web Services (OASIS TCs)

• Business Transaction Protocol

– BTP v1.0 TC Specification – May 2002

• Web Services for Remote Portals

• Web Services Interactive Applications

• Web Services Security

• Management Protocol


Web Services

• Step 1: Description – WSDL – ebXML CPP & ebXML Business Process Schema

• Step 2: Publication and Discovery– UDDI– ebXML Registry

• Step 3: Invocation – SOAP over HTTP– ebXML Messaging Spec integrating SOAP, HTTP


ebXML

The Global Standard for Electronic Business, and eBusiness Web Services


Continuing ebXML Work

• Specifications completed May 2001; available at www.ebxml.org

• Infrastructure work continuing at OASIS– Message Service– Collaborative Partner Profile & Agreement– Interoperability, Implementation & Conformance– Registry & Repository

• Content-related work continuing at UN/CEFACT– Business Process– Core Components
