IBM SOA Registry/Repository competes with UDDI

The IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository (WSRR) 6.0.1 is a classic good news, bad news story, according to a newly published Burton Group Inc. report.

There is solid technology in the registry/repository, according to Anne Thomas Manes, Burton research director and author of the report, "IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository v6.0.1," published this past week. "WSRR supports a number of compelling features, including an open content model, customizable lifecycle management processes, and tight integration with other IBM WebSphere products," she writes.

However, she faults the IBM product for not directly supporting Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI), which she describes as "the principal industry standard for SOA registries." For this reason, she concludes that "WSRR is inappropriate for use as a runtime registry in enterprises that don't exclusively use WebSphere products in their SOA infrastructure."
