I’m just reading up on SOA and the service registry / UDDI get mentioned regularly. It sounds nice but how is used in reality?

  • Is the registry meant to decouple a logical service from its’ physical implementation (port, url etc)?
  • Is the registry meant to be browsed by a human looking for an interesting service to play with?
  • Would it be ‘wrong’ to hard-wire an application to the services it uses?
