  1. Web Services Distributed Management (WSDM) TC Submission:Web Services Manageability Heather Kreger IBM kreger@us.ibm.com Igor Sedukhin Computer Associates igor.sedukhin@ca.com Mark Potts Talking Blocks mark.potts@talkingblocks.com Title slide

  2. Background • Started with active involvement of the authors on W3C Web Services Architecture Working Group Management Task Force . • To avoid fragmentation of Management Standards we co-authored a specification to facilitate development of consensus among management vendors. • Considered concepts from existing work on Web services as a management platform. • The specification is the agreed minimum sufficient set of information that make Web service endpoints manageable.

  3. Main Considerations • Does not imply the implementation of the manageability or the manager • Captures manageability with XML and WSDL • Consistent with existing standards based Web Service infrastructures • Consistent with existing management models and standards • Use existing infrastructure mechanisms • Easily extensible model • Easily implementable, reducing impact on Web service development

  4. Intention of Submission • Specification • Define the model for the manageability of Web services • Define access to this manageability • Access and model can be rendered in: • WSDL 1.1 * • GWSDL * • CIM Models • WSDL 1.2 • Identify requirements for more general Web services standards, but does not define them • Submitting the Common Base Event specification • XML event format for management events

  5. Management Topics and Aspects Web Service Manageability Management Topics Identification State Configuration Metrics Relationship Topics Management Aspects Properties Events Operations

  6. Web Service Manageability Model ManageableEndpointIdentification ManageableEndpointConfiguration ManageableEndpointMetrics ManageableEndpointState ManageableEndpointRelationships… ManageableEndpoint

  7. Interface Strategies • Each topic contains one or more interfaces (portTypes) • Interfaces can be defined based on separation of concerns, roles, visibility, re-use, ... • Managed Resource interfaces are composed from topic interfaces to support management views • Consistent interfaces across representations in WSDL and GWSDL

  8. Extensible Manageability • Topics are extensible • New topics can be created • Any topic can have aspects added to them (i.e. define new properties, operations, and events) • New aspects can be created • Manageability information is extensible

  9. Infrastructure • Supports building WS-I basic profile compliant manageable Web services • Leverages non-management specific infrastructure available to us from • WS* e.g. WS-addressing, WS-policy… • OGSI e.g. serviceData, notifications… • CMM e.g. lifecycle, relationships, metadata… • Does not imply a specific management framework

  10. Conclusion • We intend to submit this work to the OASIS WSDM TC • We are looking forward to working with the WSDM TC on developing these ideas further
