4. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com4 Web Services Standards SOA Demo 1 – Real World SOA Many Vendors  IBM  SUN  Microsoft  BEA etc.. How do they communicate with each other? Standards!!

5. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com5 Web Services Standards Tale of “many vendors”  Do “it our way” – or else we can not assist you! IBM, Sun & Microsoft was instrumental in creating the first drafts. Who owns the standards? OASIS - Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards.

6. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com6 OASIS OASIS was founded in 1993 under the name SGML Open as a consortium of vendors and users devoted to developing guidelines for interoperability among products that support the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). OASIS changed its name in 1998 to reflect an expanded scope of technical work, including the Extensible Markup Language (XML) and other related standards.

7. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com7 Implementing OASIS standards What does the OASIS standards try to address?  Interoperability  Common methodology  Increase efficiency Is there a specialized body that’s taken the responsibility of implementing these OASIS standards?

8. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com8 WS-I WS-I Interoperability The Web Services-Interoperability Organization (WS-I) is an open, industry organization-chartered to promote Web services interoperability across platforms, operating systems, and programming languages.

Authentication Authorization Non – repudiation  Digital Signatures & Sign messages Data Integrity  Hashing How do they implement it?  Using Token Multiple Implementations : SAML, Kerberos, Certificates Custom tokens Certificates are issued by ‘trusted’ vendors – RSA, Verisign Kerberos token are used by Windows Operating System manage user credentials

Is there a preferable markup language that we can use?

18. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com18 What is SAML? Security Assertions Markup Language (SAML) is an XML-based framework for Web services that enables the exchange of authentication and authorization  Assertions: Declarations of one or more facts about a user (human or computer). Authentication assertions require that the user prove his identity. Attribute assertions contain specific details about the user, such as his credit line or citizenship. The authorization decision assertion identifies what the user can do (for example, whether he is authorized to buy a certain item).  Request/response protocol: This defines the way that SAML requests and receives assertions. For example, SAML currently supports SOAP over HTTP.  Bindings: This details exactly how SAML requests should map into transport protocols such as SOAP message exchanges over HTTP.  Profiles: These dictate how SAML assertions can be embedded or transported between communicating systems. Implemented as tokens

20. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com20 Advantages of Federated Security Model The flexibility of proving one set of credentials to a user (i.e. Certificate by the client) and converting it to another set of credentials (i.e. SAML token) can be utilized in many scenarios to add value to the customers. We also have the flexibility of altering our internal (i.e. The client can provide username password pair to replace the certificate) but our external implementation of the claims will not be changed. (i.e. The broker will still create the same SAML token with the username password pair).

23. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com23 Web Services Management “ Web services enables heterogeneous software environment to share data to facilitate business needs. They support open standards (XML, SOAP, WSDL, UDDI) that will enable a "common communication platform" between distributed business partners. Web services can be built on many software platforms. (Microsoft, Java, IBM). All implementations focus on the "creation" and the "consumption" of web services. However, the concept of "managing the web service" is not explored in detail.

24. 11 Oct 2006© ChrisPeiris.com24 Web Service Management Is there a framework to provide guidance to manage web services architecture?  Demo 3 Is there a unified set of principals that can be used with heterogeneous technologies to manage web services on multiple software platforms? Will WS-Management answer these questions? Can an agent framework be utilized to mange web services features – for example ‘security’?”
