WS-JustRight, Two Way RSS

September 21st, 2005

Jon Udell posted a lengthy article about WS-JustRight which is unnervingly relavent for my post yesterday.

For Grossman and others, WS-JustRight means using SOAP and WSDL to strike a balance between formal contracts and agile interoperability, while laying a foundation for future use of more advanced SOA features. PGP’s Brodbeck agrees that WSDL is the key enabler of reusable business transactions and processes. He also extends the definition of WS-JustRight, however, to include enterprise-enabled RSS as the key enabler of reusable content.

I’m interested in learning more about RSS in the enterprise. Right now I associate RSS with polling and uni directional. What will be the enabler of two way RSS on a larger scale? I’m thinking it would be cool to make a little publish subscribe application via SOAP over XMPP which pushes out RSS/Atom data. Maybe I have a weekend project on my hands.

    Sounds like a job for ServiceMix :)

    Seriously its got the components to do the wiring today; its just a matter of configuration or adding your own transformer as Java, a script or XSLT

    if transporting Atom over XMPP is your goal, then I suggest you look at the specification for “Atom over XMPP”. See:
