  1. ebXML: Future of SOA? Presenter: Wei Lu Email: wlu@uoguelph.ca Instructor: Dr. Qusay H. Mahmond Guelph University Canada

  2. Outline • E-Business and SOA • Web Services Issues • What is ebXML • ebXML Benefits • Conclusion

  3. eBusiness Trend • Online Presence • E-Commerce • Online Product Delivery • Online Service Delivery • Online Business-to-Business Service Delivery

  4. Web Services • Bottom-up approach to SOA • Consists of three main specifications: • Web Services Description Language (WSDL) • Universal Description Discovery and Integration (UDDI) • Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)

  5. Web Services Issues • Only provide protocols for interoperation, not defining how the business process should be conducted • Proprietary extensions and vendor-specific add-ons

  6. ebXML • Electronic Business using eXtensible Markup Language • Joint initiative between United Nations Centre for trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT) and Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information standards (OASIS) • A set of specifications that enable a modular electronic business framework • ebXML.org • freebXML.org

  7. ebXML in Industry • Ontario Government of Canada • Canada Customs and Revenue Agency • US Dept. of Defense • US Center for Disease Control (CDC) • Aerospace Industries Assoc. – Boeing • Japanese Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA-Collaborative EDI) and Electronic Commerce Promotion Council of Japan (ECOM) - Japanese Kasumi Project • Australian National Office of the Information Economy • European Parliament • UK Office of e-Envoy • UK Ministry of Defence Technical Information • UK Inland Revenue • Belastingdienst, Netherlands • REACH – Government of Ireland • Hong Kong Univ. & Government - Center for E-commerce Infrastructure Development (CECID) • Korea Institute for Electronic Commerce (KIEC) • Taiwan Ministry of Economic Affairs • And more…

  8. ebXML in Software • Oracle – Oracle 9i Application Server • Sun Microsystems – JAXM • IBM - WebSphere • Sybase – Business Process Integration Suite • Sterling Commerce - Sterling Integrator • TIBCO Software – ActiveExchange • Vitria – BusinessWare Integration Platform • webMethods – Integration Platform • And more…

  9. What is ebXML • A SOA aims to provide specifications for: • Business processes & collaboration (ebBP) • Collaboration protocol profile and agreements (CPPA) • Core data components (CCTS) • Messaging (ebMS) • Registries and repositories • Consists of five core components • ISO 15000-1: ebXML Collaborative Partner Profile Agreement (CPPA) • ISO 15000-2: ebXML Messaging Service Specification (MSG) • ISO 15000-3: ebXML Registry Information Model (RIM) • ISO 15000-4: ebXML Registry Services Specification (RS) • ISO 15000-5: ebXML Core Components Technical Specification (CCTS)

  10. ebXML Collaborative Partner Profile and Agreement (CPPA) • Collaboration Protocol Profile • Technical capabilities to engage in e-business collaborations with other partners • Collaboration Protocol Agreement • Agreed configuration of public, shared aspects of the protocols used in the business collaboration protocols

  11. ebXML Messaging Services • Delivering Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) transactions within XML • EDI transactions can be orders, shipping, invoices, etc. • Not restrict to only EDI documents • Message can contain payloads of any format type • Transfer over HTTP and SMTP • Business-level header • Application-level message authorization

  12. ebXML Registry • ebXML Registry Information Model • ebXML Registry Services Specification • Contains Collaboration Protocol Profiles

  13. How does ebXML work • A service client looks up ebXML registry for service provider’s Collaboration Protocol Profile (CPP) • The CPP describes the provider’s electronic capabilities • The service client then matches the CPP description with its own to find commonalities, and creates a Collaborative Partner Agreement (CPA) to send to the service provider • The service provider validates and accepts the CPA, and the transaction begins

  14. ebXML Benefits • It defines a business process • Top-down approach, provides a common framework for vendors to conduct business • Built on existing Web services technologies, such as XML, SOAP, etc

  15. Conclusion • ebXML solves current issues with Web services • Defines a common business process which companies can follow • Eliminating vendor-specific extensions by defining industry standards • Can replace current Web services architecture
