Subject: RE: [wsrp-pfb] Groups - Publish/Find/Bind teleconference added
Hi Andre, currently I'm sitting in a plane so I can't explore your test business (wish air planes had UDDI access :-) ). However your minimal level of support reminds me of what the UDDI best practices document version 1.0 describes. Here they deal with the topic on how to publish a service wsdl into UDDI. This is basicly the same you are doing here (which is not bad btw.) Maybe we could/should align here. Currently you are publishing a WSRP portlet and I think there is no notion of whether you are publishing a portlet or the producer. I think we agreed that it should be possible to publish both: producers as "meta services" and portlets. In both cases I could imagine to have them both published as UDDI:businessServices. Therefor I would propose either a categorisation tModel which could contain key values like: WSRP:Producer or WSRP:Portlet to indicate that the businessService is a Producer or Portlet. Furthermore I think we should not map PortletHandles to businessService names. The Portlet handle is not necessary a meaningfull thing while a businessService name should be something users could use to identify the purpose of a service and to find a service. e.g. searching for "stock" could deliver all StockQuote services. Therefor I would mandate to include the portletHandle also in the published UDDI structures (not saying here how). I think by starting with eloborating on details (and I certainly pushed that with my proposal) maybe we go to deep into a lower level. Maybe we should start with some use cases first. This could help us to determine what we really want and agree on. Then we could step deeper into details. When speaking of use cases I espacially would focus on find scenarios. From these we could easily determine the publish scenarios and then the technical details. I try to come up with some once I return back home next week.

The results of my experiment are "discoverable" at http://test.uddi.microsoft.com (search for business / provider "CTXS test" and dig into the "testIBMportlet" service (ask me for help if you also find the "Search" UI a bit unintuitive). This service has one binding with an access point that references the IBM test producer's wsdl doc ( http://wsrp.dyndns.org:8080/wsrp/wsdl/ibm_wsrp_service.wsdl) and has a single instance info tModel called "WSRP" (this should be named WSRP1.0, but it's going to be a registry private name & key for UDDI 2.0 in any case). The attached XML doc (uddi-example.xml) directs our client to retrieve the above wsdl doc and introspects it for WSRP factors/ports (looks for named business/service; verifies tModel key; uses access point URL; analyses wsdl). Our client then does a getServiceDescription(), registers etc as required, and, by convention, uses the UDDI service name for the public offered portlet handle to get the portlet description. What do people think? regards, Andre -----Original Message----- From: Alan.Kropp@vignette.com [mailto:Alan.Kropp@vignette.com] Sent: 04 June 2003 23:51 To: wsrp-pfb@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [wsrp-pfb] Groups - Publish/Find/Bind teleconference added Publish/Find/Bind teleconference has been added by Alan Kropp (Alan.Kropp@vignette.com).
