Subject: WSDM InterOp Final Details - 14 September
Dear WSDM InterOp Participants: Enclosed are all the final details for next weeks InterOp Demo. Please review all the information and let me know if you have any questions. Regards, Jane **FINAL LOGISITICS: ~ Date/Time/Location: Date - 14 September 2005 Room - White Flint Amphitheater Demo Time - 1:30 to 2:20 PM Setup Time - 7:00 AM to 1:30 PM Tear-down Time - After the Track Ends ~ Testing Location: I have requested (per the group) a room from 1:00 PM - 9:00 PM on Tuesday, 13 September. EMW still has not confirmed the location yet. They did mention it would be easier to use a room after 5:30 PM. They also mentioned that Internet accessibility may not be an option. If that is the case I will inquire with the hotel directly. I will keep everyone posted on the outcome. (BTW: We do have the actual Interop Demo meeting room "White Flint Amphitheater" from 7:00 AM until the time of the demo - just in case.) ~ Attendee Packets: We invite all participants to include a piece of company literature in the attendee packets. I will be arriving at the hotel between 10:30 AM and 11:00 AM on the 14th. If you are interested, please have your literature in the meeting room no later than 11:00 AM. This will allow enough time to put the packets together (before the program begins at 1:30 PM). Again the meeting room is the White Flint Amphitheater. ~ Registration Badges: The following participants have been pre-registered - Heather Kreger, IBM Barry Atkins, IBM Bill Reichardt, HP Zhilli Zhang, Tibco Fred Maciel, Hitachi Ltd Kato Hideharu, Hitachi Ltd Rebecca Xiong, Datapower Please let me know if any changes need to be made to the above list. Registration badges may be picked up onsite at the registration desk. ~ Participant Requirements, i.e., equipment to be provided by each participating organization: - (1) Laptops/servers each to run Weather Station service, (total 5 laptops/servers) - Laptop to run each manager (total 2 laptops/servers) - HP to bring (2) Ethernet hubs and cables - IBM to bring monitor switch **DETAILS ON THE DEMO: ~ Sponsoring OASIS Technical Committee: Web Services Distributed Management Technical Committee ~ InterOp Participant Lead: Heather Kreger WSDM TC CoChair, IBM Software Standards Web Services and Management Architect IBM 4400 Silicon Drive Research Triangle Park, NC 27709 Kreger@us.ibm.com Work: 919-543-3211 Cell: 919-496-9572 ~ InterOp Title: OASIS Web Services Distributed Management (WSDM): An Interoperability Demonstration ~ Audience Level: Analysts, Architects, Strategists, Developers ~ Brief InterOp Description: This session will present an overview of WSDM and multi-vendor interoperability demonstrations to illustrate the value and interoperability of WSDM 1.0. This demonstration uses a Weather Station Service Management scenario which illustrates how a client application is kept unaffected by the changes in status of the services it invokes. In this demonstration, a space shuttle landing site weather client that depends on weather station services contracted through another company to send reports. WSDM allows a standard manager to dynamically discover the weather stations available, to get notified when one of the stations is taken down for maintenance and to automatically redirect the client application to the next best weather station available based on a response time performance policy. ~ Presenters: Heather Kreger, IBM, Richard Reichard, HP, Zhili Zhang, Tibco, Fred Maciel, Hitachi, Rebecca Xiong, Datapower ~ InterOp Abstract: This session will present an overview of WSDM and multi-vendor interoperability demonstrations to illustrate the value and interoperability of WSDM 1.0. WSDM was recently approved as a standard by the OASIS organization. Web Services Distributed Management is composed of two specifications, called MUWS (Management Using Web Services) and MOWS (Management Of Web Services). The MUWS specification, which is the foundation for bringing the power of Web services and SOA to management applications, is the center of the demonstrations. This simple demo clearly illustrates how WSDM allows management applications to go beyond centralized monitoring in an agent-based world to distributed, collaborating management application in a world that is composed of both smart and simple resources. This demonstration uses a Weather Station Service Management scenario. It illustrates how a client application is kept unaffected by the changes in status of the services it invokes. In this example, a weather client that depends on weather station services from another company to send reports. WSDM allows a standard manager to dynamically discover the weather stations available, to get notified when one of the stations is taken down for maintenance and to automatically redirect the client application to the next best weather station available based on a response time performance policy. One of the interesting points illustrated in the demo, is the ability for a manager, the weather client manager, without administration rights on the resources, the Weather station services, to still access a subset of the manageability capabilities of the resource, such as registering for notifications and obtaining status, in order to manage the availability of its own resources, the clients. The resource could make capabilities available to each manager based on policy. The scenarios are made possible in a heterogeneous environment by the use of a common, standard, Web services-based management protocol, WSDM 1.0. The use of WSDM has many other benefits not illustrated in these particular examples, such as the ability to enrich business processes with management information/action as well as the ability to instrument and manage across organizational boundaries, that the demo presenters will be happy to discuss during the Q&A at the end of and after the session. ~ Logistics Needed in the Meeting Room: (2) 8ft draped headtables (7) chairs (1) computer projector Power for (7) laptops, (1) computer projector, (2) hub, (1) monitor switch, and (2) servers (2) microphones Jane Harnad Manager of Events OASIS jane.harnad@oasis-open.org +1978-667-5115 ext 214 Office Hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
