- A platform-independent, XML-based registry for categorizing, publishing, and discovering web services. UDDI is an essential component of the service-oriented architecture (SOA) framework, functioning as a directory where businesses can list their web services and other applications can find and bind to them. The core purpose of UDDI is to enable enterprises to quickly find and integrate with the services offered by other businesses, facilitating a dynamic and interoperable ebusiness environment. UDDI was originally announced in 2000 by Microsoft, IBM, and Ariba, and was later standardized by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS).
