Is This The Decline of Public UDDI Business Registries?
After years of promoting the public UDDI Business Registries, three companies have announced this week that their directories are shutting down. IBM, Microsoft, and SAP have each posted that their current online services will be discontinued on January 12, 2006.
The Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI) specifications define a registry service for Web services and for other electronic and non-electronic services.
According to a shared FAQ between all companies: The primary goal of the UBR was to prove the interoperability and robustness of the UDDI specifications through a public implementation. This goal was met and far exceeded. The UBR ran for 5 years, demonstrating live, industrial strength UDDI implementations managing over 50,000 replicated entries. While the number is quite high, many industry leaders have recognized that a majority of the entries have been non-service related. Bill Evjen, Technical Architect for Lipper as well as author and speaker, states on his blog, "It really wasn't ever useful as much of the data in it was bogus data. It is good that it is shutting down for this reason. UDDI is better used within the enterprise."
A commentary on CBDI's website reflects upon the announcement and shutdown as, "we sense it also closed due to the lack of governance over the entries in the UBR where unmanaged content was devaluing UDDI rather than promoting it. "
Only SAP seems to be caring on the service with the new V3 standard at http://uddi.sap.com. SAP claims that all entries created on their site will migrate from V2 to V3 without issue. However, "data saved at any time on other nodes in the UBR (HP, IBM, Microsoft, NTT) will no longer be available on SAP's public UDDI node."
To read the FAQ from each company choose from the following links:

Is This The Decline of Public UDDI Business Registries?
My company was few years back trying to be included in the circle of trusted UBR Roots and it didn't work out since they didn't have any kind of processes and agreements (and political will) to include any third parties into UDDI registry business. Also the public UDDI software is quite different (based on replication processes) from UDDI software that are sold separetely or shipped with softare like Windows 2003 which was a difficult task to work with Microsoft as a licensing problem.
It would be great to see UDDI in future as DNS for applications - now unfortunately it didn't work out. Also as great as the UDDI is, there should be even tighter integration of UDDI with WebServices - as a requirement, not as an option. It's too easy to create tight-coupled service-consumer networks without any kind of dynamics on discovery.

It's about time
Back when these "yellow pages" registries were born there was talk about them becoming an "Enron for business applications."
Obviously the implications of that statement weren't quite realized at the time.
Public UDDI registries were connected to the failed B2B concept, that the future of technology lied in trade enablement not in application development and integration. Fortunately for everyone involved UDDI evolved well past the "yellow pages" concept and there are now mature registries capable of keeping track of your internals Web services and providing some sort of governance around them.

Web Services search engine for public Web Services
After UDDI Business Registries have been shut down, you can search for public Web Services with Web Services search engine from seekda. It enables keyword discovery of public services based on a catalogue of a couple of thousands of service descriptions (currently already more than 27K). The focused crawler from seekda continuously crawls the Web for new services (an average 30 new Web Services gets included daily in seekda index). seekda also regularly verifies the connectivity of all services stored in its repository to avoid outdated data.
