Hi,
We are new to UDDI world and just starting to looking at it for our web
services and "internal/private registry" use-cases.
We have decided to use JUDDI, however I'm trying to find a few information
to explain our selection. Coud someone kindly respond to the following
questions. I looked around reference, news, release sections of juddi
website and couldn't find the answers. Please forgive my ignorance if my
questions are basic or if I have over-looked any available information.
1) Where do I find the future/In-progress releases of this project?(I see
that Version 2.0rc5 was on 2007)
We are actively finishing up the 2.0 release which supports UDDI v2.
(I'm working on 2.0rc6 as I'm typing this). The final 2.0 release should
follow shortly after.
2) Any pointers to the features that would be addressed in the up-coming
releases or roadmap of this project? (say UDDI 3.0 etc...)
we are also close to a jUDDI_v3 alpha release which implements UDDI v3.
3) Any references to customers currently using this in a Highly available
production environment? (To help bring the confidence of IT managers)
among other products jUDDI is part of JBoss (and JBossESB) and Glassfish
4) From the getting started pdf file, couldn't find exact information as
"How to run this registry in a clustered environment? Ours is a Weblogic
based cluster environment. As JUDDI metadata is being stored in the registry
data-store, Is it safe tot say that Installing the mid-tier components on
all nodes of the weblogic cluster will give us a clustered registry? Are
there special instructions to install and run it in an clustered
environment?
jUDDI is stateless, having it backed by a clustered database should do
the trick.
5) Does the publishing aspect support the concept of "retiring a web
service"? (Or Is it as good as deleting the model/metadata from the
registry?)
Not sure what you mean with retiring (a logical delete?), anyway we do
physical deletes. Maybe you can describe the use case so we can discuss
this some more.
Thanks in advance!!
Hopefully you'll get some more responses besides just mine.
Cheers,
