MANAGING TRANSACTIONAL COMPOSITIONS OF WEB SERVICE APPLICATIONS

Abstract

The ACID transaction model has evolved over time to incorporate more complex transaction structures and to selectively relax the atomicity and isolation properties. Such advanced transaction models are more appropriate for SOA, which is geared toward open environments consisting of autonomous and heterogeneous systems. However, due to the autonomy and heterogeneity of local systems supporting transactional compositions of Web service applications is problematic in SOA. In addition, the interfaces of Web services are not usually designed for transactional compositions. Neither there are mechanisms for registering Web services’ abilities to participate transactional compositions nor mechanisms for registering Web services’ coordinators. How these problems can be avoided by introducing a Composition server is the topic of this paper.
