How does SOA service discovery (UDDI) work in practice?

I'm just reading up on SOA and the service registry / UDDI get mentioned regularly. It sounds nice but how is used in reality? Is the registry meant to decouple a logical service from its' physical implementation (port, url etc)? Is the registry meant to be browsed by a human looking for an interesting service to play with? Would it b...

Web service discovery in WCF : Ws-Discovery or UDDI ?

I know the distinction between UDDI and Ws-Discovery (well know location to search a service vs broadcast). But my question is : what is the simplest way to discover a webservice in WCF ? By simplest I mean what is already implemented in WCF and can be used now ? I've not seen any built-in implementation in WCF for UDDI or Ws-Discovery. ...

Visual Studio - 'Browse UDDI Servers' -> 404 ?

Hi - I have a ASP.Net application which implements a web service. Within the ASP.Net application there's a test script which consumes the web service and it all works etc. I have built a .NET console application and want to 'Add a Web Reference' so that the console app can consume the web service provided by the ASP.NET application.

Hello, I am trying to set up juddi-2.0rc6.jar with tomcat 6.0.20. I tried to follow the “Getting started” document as strictly as I can (it was ambiguous at some places).

Are there any public UDDI registries available?

I am currently trying to get a grasp of UDDI and would like to run some examples with the inquiry API, but I can’t find public registries that I can query with my SOAP messages. IBM, Microsoft and SAP used to host public UDDI servers a couple of years ago but that was discontinued. I know xmethods contains a list of publicly available ...

Is the public UDDI movement dead or, was it ever alive?

I am trying to find some public UDDI registries to interact with, for learning purposes. But it seems there are none available. I popped the following question on SO to see if someone knows about any public registry still hosted, but got no answers. The IBM, Microsoft and SAP public registries were a test of the UDDI technology. I quote...

SOA Resource Discovery vs. Service Discovery

I've recently been tasked with performing a comparison of SOA suites. I've been looking into the SOA offerings of jBoss, Oracle, WSO2, etc.., and comparing everything SOA from ESB, application servers, middleware, BPM, goverance and discovery. I thought I had a pretty clear understanding of Service Discovery and UDDI, but in the JBoss do...

UDDI Best Practices

My organisation is getting into the SOA world (a bit late, but that's what it's like here!) and we're looking into the ESB Toolkit 2.0 (we already have BizTalk Server 2009). We're keen on implementing UDDI (specifically, the UDDI Services v3.0 that ships with BTS 2009), but we're low on actual UDDI experience. We want to manage the ever...

What java api can we use to connect to jUDDI V3 in an upgrade from V2?

We are upgrading some of our systems including a move up to jUDDI V3 from V2. In the past we used uddi4j in our java code to access the UDDI server, but uddi4j doesn't seem to have continued to V3. Extensive Google time leaves me thinking there is no substitute. Is this the case? If there are alternatives can you recommend one? ...

How to use UDDI's asynchronous subscription service from a client?

How might one go about implementing the client side for jUDDI v3 asynchronous subscription to listen for business entities to be added or deleted? My understanding is that a subscription is created and then jUDDI somehow calls a webservice. How do I create a subscription that points back to my webservice? I've looked through the tutoria...

UDDI - find service which name matches exactly name specified in request

Hi. I'm asking UDDI to find a service with a name specified in request. The code looks like this: UddiConnection uddiConnection = new UddiConnection(uddiAddress); FindService findService = new FindService(); findService.Names.Add(uddiServiceName); ServiceList foundServices = findService.Send(uddiConnection); However, ...

UDDI in Glassfish V3?

Does Glassfish V3 either ship with or provide as an extension a UDDI registry? I'm trying to revise for the JavaEE 6 beta exams and I don't any experience of UDDI so I'm trying to code some examples using the API at the same time as read up on it. I've seen there are other alternatives such as jUDDI and my enterprise book mentions that...

Does A Web Service Have To Be Registered?

I'm learning about web services and most of the resources I've been reading talk about registering your web service once it's ready for use by others. Is registering a web service required to use the service? For example, let's say I have a web application on a company intranet and I create another web service app that retrieves some so...
