<Quote> given that Management of Web Services and Grids is a hot topic at the moment </Quote> With apologies to those who may have already seen this news released today: "Grid and Web Services Standards to Converge" [1] Excerpt: <Excerpt> Akamai, The Globus Alliance, HP, IBM, Sonic Software and TIBCO today proposed new Web services specifications that will integrate Grid and Web services standards. The new WS-Notification and WS-Resource Framework represent the first time a common, standards-based infrastructure will be available for business applications, Grid resources and systems management. These new specifications will help customers lower costs, speed deployment and enable integration across and outside of the enterprise. The WS-Notification specification and the WS-Resource Framework will provide a scalable pub/sub messaging model and the ability to model stateful resources using Web services. WS-Notification can automatically trigger an action in the IT infrastructure once certain criteria have been met. </Excerpt> The following page also provides background on the WS-Resource Framework announced today: http://www.globus.org/wsrf/ The following is an FAQ: http://www.globus.org/wsrf/faq.asp Kind Regards, Joe Chiusano Booz | Allen | Hamilton Strategy and Technology Consultants to the World [1] http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1?release_id=61977 Steve Ross-Talbot wrote: > > Given that interoperability is pretty key to Web Services in general > and given that Grid is becoming very Web Service focussed and given > that Management of Web Services and Grids is a hot topic at the moment > it strikes me that perhaps the interopeability that we might achieve > through the adoption of a CDL can also be applied to management and > therefore Grid and Web Service Management. > > Any comments on how we might construct a value-proposition (if I am > indeed correct)? > > Cheers > > Steve T
