<!-- Detail Sidebar -->The Universal Description, Discovery, and =

(UDDI) standard is the least understood and often the most =
maligned of
the core Web Services standards. Unlike its now well-understood =
cousins
SOAP and WSDL, UDDI has experienced limited and sporadic adoption =
by
companies implementing Web Services-based SOAs. This lukewarm =

is particularly surprising, considering that discovery is a core =
feature
of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), and SOAs are all the buzz =
in IT
shops around the world today. So, what's the problem with UDDI, =
anyway?
Why is it so misunderstood? And most important, what will the =

UDDI was originally the brainchild of a consortium of vendors led =
by IBM,
Microsoft, and Ariba in 2000. SOA proponents primarily at IBM =
promoted
the "publish-find-bind" SOA triangle, and sketched out =
the core
of UDDI to provide a standard way of handling the discovery =
aspects
(publish and find) of this triangle. The broader UDDI consortium =
and
early press coverage, however, saw Web Services more as providing =
a way
for companies to conduct business with each other, where Web =
Service
discovery applied more to finding a third-party company to do =
business
with than solving a particular integration problem. =
<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>As a result, the consortium defined three =
distinct
parts of the UDDI specification: <b><span =
style=3D'font-weight:bold'>White
Pages</span></b>, where a Service consumer could discover =
companies'
basic contact information, <b><span =
style=3D'font-weight:bold'>Yellow Pages</span></b>,
where users can search for information about the types of business
services a company offers, and <b><span =
style=3D'font-weight:bold'>Green
Pages</span></b> that provide the technical information about how =
to
interface with a company's publicly available Web Services. The
consortium building the UDDI spec quickly built public test =
registries,
in the hopes that businesses around the world would populate them =
with
rich information about how to conduct business with each other, =
and a new
era of automated, business-to-business eCommerce would be born. =

<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>However, this vision of automated
business-to-business interaction simply didn't pan out, because =
business
just doesn't work that way. Here's an example of the problem. =
Let's say
your shipping software wants to look in a public UDDI registry for =
an
overnight carrier that offers the lowest cost for shipping a =
particular
package. Finding the right company is easy, but now what? If you =
don't
already have an account with the shipping company, than simply =
finding
information about it is insufficient for conducting business with =
the
firm. The missing element is the <b><span =

fact
that business requires some kind of human handshake. =

In the four years since the original proposal of the UDDI spec, =
then, the
White, Yellow, and Green Pages idea of UDDI has dogged the =
standard,
creating a straw man that has impeded widespread adoption. This =
idea is a
straw man because it fundamentally mischaracterizes the UDDI value
proposition as discovering new companies to do business with. On =
the
contrary, the power of UDDI lies in its role within an operating =
SOA as a
key standard that helps companies realize loose coupling by =
guiding the
location independence of Services, and hence implementing the =
abstraction
layer that the Services represent in an SOA. =
<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>To understand UDDI's true value to an SOA, =
it's
important to distinguish between two basically different senses of =
the
concept of the discovery of Web Services. The first sense of =
discovery is
essentially a manual, design time activity, where developers or =
other
people who want to find a particular Web Service search for it =
with some
kind of Service discovery tool. The second sense of the concept of
Service discovery is basically an automatic, runtime activity, =
where a
Service consumer (which is a piece of software) has an indirect =
reference
to the Service it requires, and looks up that reference in a =
runtime
registry in order to find the Service contract (WSDL file) that =
tells the
consumer where to find the Service and how to bind to it, similar =
to how
the Domain Name Service (DNS) binds names of Internet addresses to =
the
physical IP address of the requested server. =
<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>This manual, design time sense of Service =
discovery
is best handled by an asset management or metadata management =
tool. Such
tools may support UDDI as part of how they provide for the =
discovery of
Services, but the information that might be contained in a =
UDDI-enabled
registry is only part of the metadata that asset management tools =
must
deal with. In other words, asset management tools are metadata =
management
tools that may or may not support the UDDI standard, but in any =
case,
must offer users far more information than what would normally be
included in a UDDI registry, including metadata about Service =
levels,
support for Service consumers, security and policy requirements, =
and
information about what Services are for and how to use them. Asset
management is essential to how people use an SOA to build
loosely-coupled, coarse-grained systems that are composed of =
reusable
Service assets, but is only tangentially related to the runtime =
operation
of the architecture. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>In contrast, the automatic, runtime sense of =
Service
discovery is essential to the proper operation of an SOA. To =
understand
why runtime discovery is so important, consider that a Service =
consumer
should query the registry every time a particular Service is =
requested,
and the registry might conceivably return a different Service =
contract
from one request to the next. For example, a Service-Oriented (SO)
Management application that incorporates a UDDI-based Service =
registry
might route a request to a different server to provide better =
scalability
or availability, support different Service versions or service =
levels,
handle protocol translation, or maybe convert a synchronous =
request to an
asynchronous one. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>In addition, Service consumers might not be =
aware of
security or policy changes that might require a change in the way =
that
they access a given Service. In these cases, there might be a =
Service
negotiation where Service consumers communicate first with a =
registry to
determine how best to access particular functionality. Regardless, =
all of
this management activity takes place behind the scenes, in that =
the user
of the Service need be none the wiser that the Service contract or =
the
underlying Service provider is different from one request to the =
next. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>In other words, UDDI is an essential part of =
abstracting
the Service interface. As faithful ZapThink readers know, an SOA =
is an
abstraction layer that provides agile business Services to the =
user while
hiding the underlying complexity of the technology. UDDI is a =
critical
element in the magic that makes this abstraction work. =

As the old story goes, the ugly duckling got nothing but scorn =
from his
nest-mates, but had the last laugh in the end, since after all, he =
was a
swan all along. Just so with UDDI -- scorned in its youth, but now =
in the
process of growing its adult feathers. Now that the attention of =
the
industry is focused on SOA, technologists are working through the
elements of this new architectural approach, and as a result, are =
gaining
a newfound respect for, and understanding of UDDI. =

<p><font size=3D2 color=3Dblack face=3DVerdana><span =
style=3D'font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Verdana'>Even as UDDI takes flight, however, it's =
important
to realize that it's just one part of the whole Service discovery
picture. On the one hand, asset management tools provide a broader =
set of
discovery capabilities to the business or technical user than a =
UDDI
registry would offer, and on the other hand, UDDI-based Service
registries are frequently an integral part of an SO management
application. After all, UDDI is a standard, not a product -- but =
among
the core Web Services standards, it's the one most essential to
maintaining the abstraction layer in an enterprise SOA. =
