UDDI Registries

Sybase Workspace has integrated support for interacting with UDDI servers, letting you search for Web services on compatible UDDI registries.

To set up a connection to a UDDI registry in your project, create a UDDI registry connection profile. Sybase WorkSpace includes preconfigured UDDI registry connection profile templates for many common publicly accessible UDDI registries, such as the SAP UDDI registry.

A UDDI registry connection profile lets you perform complex searches of UDDI registries by name, UUID code, or geographic region. You can perform any search operations by right-clicking the UDDI registry connection profile icon in the Enterprise Explorer. After you look up a service, you can drag and drop its WSDL document into your project folder and use the WSDL document to create a basic SOAP service.

To share services within your Sybase WorkSpace development group, you can set up EAServer to host your own internal UDDI server, usually private.
