Abstract

WS-Notification bundle of standards, WS-BaseNotification, WS-Topics, and WS-BrokeredNotification, can be used as a general purpose publish/subscribe interface for Service Oriented Architectures. We provide an overview of the WS-Notification specification and describe a modified publish and subscribe model based on WS-Notification. The model is an adaptive policy-driven notification framework that can help enterprises to meet the flexibility and respon-siveness requirements of the enterprise. With the modified publish/subscribe model, information consumers can dy-namically and declaratively create and configure entities on their behalves to manage their distribution requirements.
