The evolution of the Web services “stack” An introduction to WS-I WS-I’s activities: past, present and future How WS-I works with other standards organizations Becoming a WS-I member Copyright © 2004 by The Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I).

Web-based • They are everywhere…not just on certain platforms Service-oriented • Architecturally easier to use Coarse-grained • Common language for business and IT Simple • label/value pairs, XML-based, etc. Market difference • Committed support from every significant vendor • Close collaboration by the most influential companies • WS-I: The Web Services Interoperability Organization •The “last mile” for standards • Implementation guidelines, tools and examples Copyright © 2004 by The Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I).

All Rights Reserved 12 WS-I An open industry effort chartered to promote Web Services interoperability across platforms, applications and programming languages. A standards integrator to help Web services advance in a structured, coherent manner Approximately 130 member organizations 70% vendors, 30% end-user organizations Strong non-US membership, including very influential Japan SIG Copyright © 2004 by The Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I). All Rights Reserved 13 WS-I Goals • Achieve Web services interoperability Integrate specifications Promote consistent implementations Provide a visible representation of conformance • Accelerate Web services deployment Offer implementation guidance and best practices Deliver tools and sample applications Provide a implementer’s forum where developers can collaborate • Encourage Web services adoption Build industry consensus to reduce early adopter risks Provide a forum for end users to communicate requirements Raise awareness of customer business requirements Copyright © 2004 by The Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I). All Rights Reserved 14 WS-I Value Proposition For end-user companies Reduces the cost, complexity, and risk of adopting Web services Accelerates interoperable products and solutions to market Helps ensure that business requirements are met For vendors Satisfies customer demand for cross-vendor interoperability Speeds time-to-market for new product development Enables vendors to influence industry direction as WS-I members For all developers Increases productivity via specifications, tools and best practices Establishes framework for leveraging expertise of other developers Enables developers to influence industry direction as WS-I members Copyright © 2004 by The Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I). All Rights Reserved 15 Deliverables Profiles Defined set of specifications or standards at specific version levels Guidelines and conventions for using these specifications together in ways that ensure interoperability Sample applications Use cases and usage scenarios based on customer requirements Sample code and applications built in multiple environments Demonstrate profile-based interoperability Test tools and supporting materials Tools that test profile implementations for conformance with the profiles Supporting documentation and white papers Copyright © 2004 by The Web Services Interoperability Organization (WS-I).
