Extended Services Background

• What are “Extended Services”– “Services” - functional capabilities offered by the

community– “Extended” – because they are not native to ECHO– Published to the ECHO Registry

• Functional Summary – What does ECHO do with them?– Register – Service Providers register the services– Activate – ECHO operations review and activate them.– Find – Users find the services using the UDDI inquiry API or

Extended Services Viewer– Retrieve – Users can get the services to view their details– Update – Service Providers can update their services– Delete – Service Providers can remove their services

Extended Services 8.0 Capabilities

• Full CRUD for Extended Service Entities– Create– Read– Update– Delete

• Allow for combined Service Interface/Implementation WSDL– Single registration sequence

• Initial brokering of services– Invocation Service

Extended Services 9.0 Additional Capabilities

• Event Management– Publication of events for changes in the registry

•Examples: New Service Interface, Service Deleted, Service Updated, etc.

– Ability to subscribe to those events– Notification upon event occurrence

• Event Summary– New Dataset– Updated Dataset– Deleted Dataset– New Service– Updated Service– Deleted Service

• Based on WS-Eventing & -Notification

Policy and Governance

• Policy drives how an organization uses the tools available to them.– To protect the organization’s interests

• ECHO is a partnership between NASA and ECHO participants

• NASA has the responsibility to ensure that what it publicly represents is legitimate and appropriate

• ECHO policy practices– Registered partners may publish

• Form sent to ECHO Operations team• NASA approval

– Two-phased Publication

• Registration & Activation

ECHO’S Service Domain Model

Provider

9

Extended Services Entity:Web Service Interface

• Defines a web service API• Defined in WSDL file• Hosted within ECHO

system– Centrally managed

interfaces encourages standardization and reuse within community

• Reusable between provider organizations

• Example:– Common Subsetting

interface– Common Access service

interface (OPeNDAP)– WMS service

ProviderProvider

10

Extended Services Entity:Web Service Implementation

• An executable web service hosted by an ECHO Service Provider

• Defined in a WSDL file– Contains at least one service

element• May implement

interfaces registered in ECHO.– By importing interface

WSDL from ECHO hosted location.

• Examples:– An application-specific

service (OPeNDAP Query adaptor)

– A predictive model– Specific WMS server

ProviderProvider

11

Extended Services Entity:Web Service GUI

• A user interface for a web service.

• Provides a way for human to interact with a web service.

• Includes name, description, and access point

• Associated with implementations and interfaces registered in ECHO.

• Examples:– ECHO Query Client– Domain Specific User Client

for subsetting

ProviderProvider

12

Extended Services Entity:Advertisement

• A way to advertise a service that is not a real Web Service.

• Includes name and description of service and an access point.

• Example– Service for expert advice on

a specific application area– Ability to drop sensors in

the Chesapeake Bay

ProviderProvider

13

Categorization and Classification

• Categorization– Process of creating categories or types

• Classification– Process of assigning objects within categories

14

Taxonomies

• A way of classifying extended service entities in ECHO.

• Have a tree like structure.– Root of the tree is the

taxonomy.– Leaves and nodes on the

tree are taxonomy entries

• A taxonomy entry is a name and value pair.– Values are unique in a

taxonomy.

15

Virtual Taxonomies

• This is a type of taxonomy that is populated by ECHO automatically.

• They behave and look to the user like a regular static taxonomy.

16

Existing Taxonomies in ECHO

• nasa-ECHO:Dataset – The primary input type dataset taxonomy– Should be used to classify services where the dataset is the

primary input to the service– Is a virtual taxonomy– As new datasets are added to ECHO this taxonomy grows

• Contains: – Each Provider– Collections for that provider

17

Existing Taxonomies in ECHO

nasa-ECHO:Dataset Example data

18

Existing Taxonomies in ECHO

• nasa-ECHO:ServiceType – This is a categorization scheme of kinds of services from a functional perspective. It is comprised of other taxonomies defined by external organizations.

• Currently contains:• ISO 19119 (OGC)

– Specific OGC subgroups

• OPeNDAP

19

Existing Taxonomies in ECHO

• nasa-ECHO:DataFormat – This is a categorization scheme based on the format of Earth Science data. It is similar to a mime-type classification scheme.

• Currently contains• Complex• Graphical

20

Classification within ECHO

• Service Partners classify their service offerings– Upon Publication– Updates as needed

• Classification is not required– But very useful

• Multiplicity– Classify to zero or more

Taxonomies– Classify to zero or more

nodes within a Taxonomy

ProviderProvider

21

How To…

• What is available to use ECHO Extended Services– APIs– Documentation– Tools

• Extended Services Scenarios– Register as a Service Provider– Publish a Web Service Interface– Publish a Web Service Implementation– Publish a Web Service GUI– Publish an Advertisement– Classify an offering– Update an offering– Delete an offering
