WS-Security interoperability with Oracle BPEL and WSE 3.0
With each release, BPEL is emerging more and more as the declarative standard to describe business process based on web service interactions. Additionally, during the last few years, WS-* protocols have been created to improve the web service basic stack (SOAP, WSDL, UDDI) in different areas like security, reliable messaging and metadata management. Security has been of particular focus in regards to protocols such as WS-security, WS-secure conversation and WS-trust. The ability of BPEL-based process to interact with web services that express those protocols as part of their contract will become more critical every day. Alternatively, interoperability between the different implementation of WS-security, mainly between the J2EE and .NET platforms, is a key aspect of the realization of SOA.

It is also a fact that Standards like BPE4WS or WSCI can be the bridge between BPM and SOA technologies. That’s why I am so glad to this:
