The OASIS ebXML Messaging Services TC members have produced an updated Committee Specification Draft (CSD) and submitted this specification for 15-day public review:
OASIS ebXML Messaging Services Version 3.0: Part 2, Advanced Features Committee Specification Draft 03 / Public Review Draft 02 16 February 2011
Specification Overview:
This specification complements the ebMS 3.0 Core Specification by specifying advanced messaging functionality for message service configuration, message bundling, messaging across intermediaries (multi-hop) and transfer of (compressed) messages as series of smaller message fragments.
The main function of intermediaries as defined in this specification is to provide message routing and forwarding based on standardized SOAP message headers, allowing a sending MSH to ignore the ultimate message destination and abstract away from lower-level transport parameters such as the URL of the ultimate receiving MSH and message exchange pattern bindings. The intermediary functionality defined here supports message relaying across segmented networks, synchronous and asynchronous
bindings and both active (push) and passive (pull message stores) forwarding styles. Multi-hop paths may consist of any number of intermediaries.
This second review of the specification contains editorial changes to correct and clarify issues raised during its first review period. No changes to the functionality described in
the specification have been made as part of these changes. The OASIS ebXML Messaging Services TC [1] was chartered to develop and recommend technology for the transport, routing and packaging of business transactions using standard Internet
technologies.
Public Review Period: The public review starts today, 03 April 2011 and ends 18 April 2011. The specification was previously submitted for a 60-day public review on 13 August 2010 [2]. This 15-day review is limited in scope to changes made from the previous review of 13 August 2010. Changes are highlighted in the diff-marked PDF and editable source files [3].
This is an open invitation to comment. OASIS solicits feedback from potential users, developers and others, whether OASIS members or not, for the sake of improving the interoperability and quality of its technical work.
