The SCA Assembly technical committee
thanks Siemens for its comments on the SCA Assembly Model specification,
as contained in:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-assembly-comment/200906/msg00003.html
The Assembly technical committee took
a decision at its Face-to-Face meeting in December 2009 to take no action
in response to the Siemens comments,
with the result that the relevant parts of the specification are left unchanged.
The Assembly TC debated the points made
by Siemens about the requirement for an SCA runtime to support the
Web services binding in addition to
the SCA binding. The opinion of the TC is that the removal of the requirement
for the support of the Web services
binding would have the effect of limiting the interoperability and portability
of
SCA components and applications. Since
the SCA binding is not interoperable, on its own it provides no basis
for interoperability. Without
some other binding being required, there can be no guarantee of interoperability.
Portability will also be severely limited
if there is no common interoperable binding provided by SCA runtimes -
given
that systems built using a Service-Oriented
Architecture are typically expected to be interoperable. Having to
restructure applications in order to
move them between runtimes is against some of the goals that SCA aims to
achieve.
As a result of these considerations,
the Assembly TC was unwilling to remove the requirement for Web services
support.
Yours, Mike.
