You get these two keys from the UDDI registry. To help you understand
what UDDI service keys and business keys are, and where you find them in a
UDDI registry, this topic describes how to publish a Web service to a UDDI
registry.
The following description of the UDDI publication process
requires that you specify a Technical model. Technical models are generic
categories. Using these models, a UDDI registry user can search for a type
of service, rather than needing to know the access details for a specific
service. the service integration bus Web services enablement (SIBWS) makes
no use of Technical model information because it only interacts with UDDI
registries at the level of specific Web services.
The following task
steps include specific navigation instructions. These instructions describe
how you publish a Web service to the IBM WebSphere UDDI Registry.
If you are working with a different UDDI registry, then the specific navigation
is different but the underlying principles are the same.
- Specify a business:
- To get a list of valid business keys, look up businesses in
the UDDI registry. Here is an example of a UDDI business key: 08A536DC-3482-4E18-BFEC-2E2A23630526.
- If you do not find an appropriate existing business in the UDDI
registry, then use the Add a business option on the Advanced Publish section
of the Publish pane to add a new one.
- Add a technical model:
- Select Add a technical model on the Advanced Publish section
of the Publish pane.
- Enter the name as specified for the target namespace of your
binding (or interface) WSDL file, then add a description (if required).
- Add a category of Type unspsc and value wsdlSpec (the
Key name field can be left blank).
- Add an overview URL specifying the Web address for your binding
WSDL file, then add a description (if required).
Note: The
binding and the service definition for your Web service might be held in separate
WSDL files, therefore be careful to type the Web address of the WSDL file
that defines the binding.
- Click Publish Technical Model.
- Add a service:
- Select Show owned entities on the Advanced Publish section
of the Publish pane.
- Select Add a Service for your business.
- Enter the name as specified for the target service in your WSDL
file, then add a description (if required).
- For the Access point verify that the correct Web address
type is selected (for example http for an HTTP access point),
then enter the value of the soap:address location (or its
equivalent) from your service definition WSDL file (for example http://yourhost:80/SimpleTest/servlet/rpcrouter).
- For the Technical model select Add, then find
the required Technical model by entering a suitable prefix and selecting Find
technical models, then enable the check box for the required Technical
model and click Update.
- Click Publish Service.
The UDDI registry assigns a service key to your service, and publishes
the service.
After the service has been published you can get the service key
from the target UDDI registry. Here is an example of a UDDI service key: 34280367-0ECF-46CE-B804-14C21D6D0FB1.
