Windows Server 2003 includes Enterprise UDDI Services, dynamic and
flexible infrastructure for Web services discovery. This standards-based
solution enables companies to run their own private UDDI service for intranet
or extranet use.
UDDI Services helps companies organize and catalog programmatic resources.
By applying categorization schemes such as geography, Quality of Service (QoS),
or organization in UDDI Services, companies can establish a structured and
standardized way to describe and discover services.
UDDI Services delivers strategic benefits to enterprises deploying Web
services. As a core piece of Web services infrastructure in Windows Server
2003, UDDI Services makes it easy to discover, share, and re-use Web
services and other programmable resources. This can improve developer and IT
productivity, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and more
reliable and manageable applications.
Developers can quickly find and re-use Web services available within the
organization. IT administrators can catalog and manage the programmable
resources in their network. With UDDI Services, companies can build and
deploy smarter, more reliable applications.
Built on the .NET Framework, UDDI Services is a reliable and scalable
solution that provides easy integration with enterprise technologies and tools.
IT Managers can leverage native support for standard and custom categorization
schemes, Microsoft SQL Server, and Windows authentication. UDDI Services
is fully compliant with version 1.0 and 2.0 of the UDDI API. It includes an
intuitive web interface and is fully localized to each of the 17 languages
supported by the Windows Server 2003 family.
