Learning UDDI
As part of my learning project I have been delving into UDDI. I have the skeleton for the project working and needed to "interconnect" it - or let the pieces and the client find out where things are. Things being services.
I have a number of books with sections on UDDI. The most useful have been:
- "Real World XML Web Services" by Yasser Shohoud. Always my main source for webservices.
- "UDDI building registry-base web services solutions" by naresh apte and toral mehta. Helped more in the overview of how a business would use UDDI but does contain a lot of code.
Other resources that have helped are the series of articles by Karsten Januszweski for the UDDI SDK. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnuddi/html/runtimeuddi1.asp etc.
Also a couple of blogs by Clement Vasters: http://radio.weblogs.com/0108971/2003/07/09.html#a216 as an I opener on the power of UDDI.
I am still finding it a little difficult to get my mind around business entities, services and tModels and categories and ...
I am attempting to learn this by both reading and doing. I have "played" with http://test.uddi.microsoft.com and a number of samples. Plus a lot of my own code attempts. It's scary but I might be getting it - or at least getting it enough to get into trouble. Although with a learning project I can't really get into too much trouble. If I do, I'll start over - nothing lost but lots gained.
I see this as something I really need to know to meet some of the goals of my learning project.
My blogs seem simple compared to others. I am trying to move up from just a C# programmer at work to something more. It doesn't help that I'm not very good at expressing myself - maybe part of the point of a blog. Anyway ...
