Registry Federations in CentraSite

CentraSite provides support for federated registries. Federation allows you to obtain copies of objects from one registry and store them in another registry, where you intend to access and navigate them.

The registries participating in a federation can be CentraSite registries and UDDI v3-compliant registries. Currently, the UDDI federation support allows federating data from a 3rd party UDDI registry such as jUDDI or SAP to CentraSite.

For general information about UDDI v3, refer to the specification at http://uddi.org/pubs/uddi_v3.htm.
