Setting up and deploying a new UDDI registry

A UDDI registry node consists of the UDDI registry application (a J2EE application that is supplied as part of WebSphere Application Server), a store of data (using a relational database management system) referred to as the UDDI database, and a means to connect the application to the data (a datasource and related elements). To set up a new UDDI registry you create the UDDI database and datasource, and deploy the supplied application.

Before you begin

Start WebSphere Application Server, and create a server to host the UDDI registry. Use Starting and stopping quick reference for information about starting WebSphere Application Server using either commands or the administrative console.

About this task

The subtopics describe how to create the UDDI database (which can be local or remote) and datasource, and how to deploy the UDDI registry application.

You can create either a default UDDI node or a customized UDDI node. The main difference between default and customized, in the context of these set up tasks, refers to a number of mandatory UDDI registry properties such as the UDDI node ID and description, and the prefix to be used for generated discovery URLs.
Default UDDI node
The mandatory properties are automatically set to default values and cannot be changed. A default UDDI node is a suitable option for initial evaluation of the UDDI registry, and for development and test purposes.
Customized UDDI node
You must set the mandatory properties, but once set they cannot be changed for this configuration. With a customized UDDI node you have more control over the database management system used for the UDDI database, and the properties used to set up the UDDI database. With a customized UDDI node, you create the UDDI database and datasource to your own specifications before deploying the UDDI registry application. A customized node is a suitable option for production purposes. To move from a default UDDI node to a customized node, see Changing the UDDI registry application environment after deployment.
