wiki1520: WebServicesBaseNotificationV1.3

Standard

1. The name of the specification

Web Services Base Notification 1.3

2. A short statement (<100 words) of the purpose and function of the specification

In the Notification pattern a Web service, or other entity, disseminates information to a set of other Web services, without having to have prior knowledge of these other Web services. This specification defines a role called the NotificationProducer. A NotificationProducer is capable of producing a set of Notification messages. A NotificationProducer accepts incoming Subscribe requests. Each Subscribe request contains a reference to a NotificationConsumer and identifies the subset of the Notifications the NotificationProducer should produce. This subset can be described by identifying one or more boolean filters, including filtering by Topic, as discussed in WS-Topics. The NotificationProducer agrees to produce Notification Messages as requested in the Subscribe request, or returns a fault if the subscription cannot be handled. The production of Notifications may be realized in a number of ways. One particular configuration, in which the NotificationProducer reproduces Notifications produced by other entities, is described in the WS-BrokeredNotification specification. Alternatively, a NotificationProducer may produce Notifications itself. An implementer interested only in such direct, point-to-point, notification need only refer to this WS-BaseNotification specification.

3. The version number (or other distinct identifier) and date of the most recently approved version of the specification.

Public Review period for Committee Draft WS-BaseNotification V1.3

4. If the specification is part of a group of explicitly related specifications from the same source, the name of the group of specifications.

WS-Notification is a family of related specifications that define a standard Web services approach to notification using a topic-based publish/subscribe pattern. It includes: standard message exchanges to be implemented by service providers that wish to participate in Notifications, standard message exchanges for a notification broker service provider (allowing publication of messages from entities that are not themselves service providers), operational requirements expected of service providers and requestors that participate in notifications, and an XML model that describes topics. The WS-Notification family of documents includes three normative specifications: WS-BaseNotification, WS- BrokeredNotification, and WS-Topics.
