First people start with ebMS and get Business Processes to be talking using manually assmebled CPAs or sometimes even without CPAs. Next they start using ebXML Registry to discover CPPs (or template CPAs) and assemble CPAs. This is the classic design time use of ebXML Registry envisioned by the original ebXML Architecture. Eventually they start using ebXML Registry at run time, not so much to do dynamic service invocation but to use it as an operational store for configuration and operational data. But the vast majority of uses within the 200+ user community of freebXML Registry that I see has nothing to do with ebXML's original vision or ebMS. The vast majority of use cases simply use it as enabling infrastructure for Federated Information Management. The Pan Canadian Registry being developed in the Canadian Governemnt cuts across local, provincial, territorial and federal government entities to enable seamless information sharing to deliver cost effective eServices to Canadian residents and businesses. They too have adopted ebXML Registry standard for the Pan Canadian Registry because of its design center of Federated Information Management. Then there is a large segment of ebXML Registry users that use it simply as a Registry of SOA Artefacts. >That was one of the motivations for example for releasing the ebXML/UDDI [1] >mapping.

So how many cases can you cite of anyone on the planet using UDDI as a registry of ebXML Artefacts? ebXML Registry is being deployed as a SOA Registry, as a GIS Registry, as a Core Components Registry, as a Business Process Catalogs Registry, as a Electrinic Medical Records Registry, eForms Registry to name just a few. Not bad for an alleged betamax. >I'm check'in out of this thread - not sure what and who's cause it serves. > > Not your's I suspect ;-) I have found it to be an informative and valuable exchange until the betamax analogy was thrown in. -- Regards, Farrukh Najmi Editor: ebXML Registry TC Co-chair: Semantic Content Management SC of OASIS ebXML Registry TC Co-chair: Registry SC of OASIS egov TC Lead Architect: freebXML Registry open source project (http://ebxmlrr.sourceforge.net ) Spec Lead: JAXR API Federated Information Management Architect: Sun Microsystems Coming to Java ONE 2005?
