Service Metadata Publishing (SMP) v2.0 from BDXR TC approved as a Committee Specification

OASIS is pleased to announce that Service Metadata Publishing (SMP) Version 2.0 from the OASIS Business Document Exchange (BDXR) TC [1] has been approved as an OASIS Committee Specification.

SMP v2.0 describes a protocol for publishing service metadata within a 4-corner network. In a 4-corner network, entities are exchanging business documents through intermediary gateway services (sometimes called Access Points).

To successfully send a business document in a 4-corner network, an entity must be able to discover critical metadata about the recipient of the business document, such as types of documents the recipient is capable of receiving and methods of transport supported. The recipient makes this metadata available to other entities in the network through a Service Metadata Publisher service. This specification describes the request/response exchanges between a Service Metadata Publisher and a client wishing to discover endpoint information. A client can either be an end-user business application or a gateway/access point in the 4-corner network.

This Committee Specification is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.

Invitation to comment on TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML v1.3 – ends June 21

OASIS and the OASIS Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) TC are pleased to announce that TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML Version 1.3 is now available for public review and comment.

YAML is a human friendly data serialization standard with a syntax much easier to read and edit than XML. The TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML specifies a rendering of TOSCA which aims to provide a more accessible syntax as well as a more concise and incremental expressiveness of the TOSCA DSL (Domain Specific Language) in order to minimize the learning curve and speed the adoption of the use of TOSCA to portably describe cloud applications.

Cross-Enterprise Security and Privacy Authorization (XSPA) Profile of SAML v2.0 for Healthcare v2.0 from XSPA TC approved as a Committee Specification

OASIS is pleased to announce that Cross-Enterprise Security and Privacy Authorization (XSPA) Profile of SAML v2.0 for Healthcare Version 2.0 from the OASIS Cross-Enterprise Security and Privacy Authorization (XSPA) TC [1] has been approved as an OASIS Committee Specification.

The XSPA profile defines a set of SAML attributes and corresponding vocabularies for healthcare information exchange applications.

The core use-cases are the cross-enterprise exchange of protected data objects from a Service Provider (SP) to a Service Consumer (SC). In the scenarios, the request includes SAML attribute assertions that vouch for the identity of the requesting Principal and other attributes that are consequential in making the access control decision at the SP’s side.

In addition to the main use-cases, the attributes’ name and values can be used in some other scenarios, such as including SAML Assertions to vouch for some of SP’s organizational attributes, or carrying the identity attributes of the signer of a data object.

This Committee Specification is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.

Exchange Header Envelope (XHE) v1.0 from BDXR TC approved as a Committee Specification

OASIS is pleased to announce that Exchange Header Envelope (XHE) Version 1.0 from the OASIS Business Document Exchange (BDXR) TC [1] has been approved as an OASIS Committee Specification.

The Exchange Header Envelope (XHE) has been developed jointly by UN/CEFACT and OASIS as the successor to the UN/CEFACT Standard Business Document Header (SBDH) version 1.3 and the OASIS Business Document Envelope (BDE) Version 1.1.

XHE defines a business-oriented artefact either referencing (as a header) or containing (as an envelope) a payload of one or more business documents or other artefacts with supplemental semantic information about the collection of payloads as a whole. An exchange header envelope describes contextual information important to the sender and receiver about the payloads, without having to modify the payloads in any fashion. This vocabulary is modeled using the UN/CEFACT Core Component Technical Specification Version 2.01.

This Committee Specification is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.

OASIS Introduces Open Projects Program to Bridge Open Source and Standards Development

AirBus, CIB, Fujitsu, IBM, Red Hat, Siemens, Software AG, The Document Foundation, and others sponsor Open Projects

BOSTON (PRWEB) MAY 08, 2019 – OASIS, a global nonprofit consortium, today announced the launch of Open Projects, the first-of-its-kind program that creates a more transparent and collaborative future for open source and standards development. Open Projects gives communities the power to develop what they choose–APIs, code, specifications, reference implementations, guidelines– in one place, under open source licenses, with a path to recognition in global policy and procurement.

The lines between open source and open standards have been blurring for some time, and communities in both arenas have been calling for more flexibility and options for collaboration. Open Projects is a new approach that addresses the need for change in everything from handling IP to governance and decision-making, from funding to establishing trust and assuring quality.

“With Open Projects, we’re building a movement to transform the open source and standards world,” said Gershon Janssen, Chairman, OASIS Board of Directors. “We want to dissolve the barriers that separate communities. We want to empower groups with more control and streamlined governance. We want to support projects by giving them all the process they need–and not a bit more–so they can accomplish great things fast.”

Open Projects builds on the OASIS experience and reputation for producing quality work that’s been trusted and supported by governments and industries worldwide for more than 25 years.

“For many, open source has become a means of establishing de facto software standards. However, de facto standards are not recognized by many governments and institutions.” said Chris Ferris, IBM Fellow and CTO Open Tech for IBM. “OASIS Open Projects provides an important new opportunity to leverage the rapid innovation of open source in the process of developing open standards. The potential to achieve ISO, IEC, or ITU standards approval is a huge value for many important open source initiatives.” Ferris, who also holds a leadership position on the Hyperledger Fabric project, played an instrumental role in defining the OASIS Open Projects program and now serves on its Advisory Council.

The Open Projects program is being advanced by some of the most accomplished, regarded minds in open source today. The Open Projects Advisory Council provides strategic insight on the needs of open source projects, identifying current practices that work well and exploring new approaches where improvements can be made with a goal of curating the future of open source. Advisory Council members include:

  • Kris Borchers (Sr. Program Manager, Azure PIE Open Engineering, Microsoft)
  • Amanda Brock (Director of Open UK, Trustable CEO)
  • Deborah Bryant (Senior Director, Open Source Program Office, Office of the CTO)
  • Chris Ferris (CTO Open Tech for IBM, Hyperledger TSC member)
  • Georg Grutter (Chief Expert, Bosch)
  • Jim Jagielski (Open Source Chef for ConsenSys, co-founder of The Apache Software Foundation)
  • Tobie Langel (Principal of UnlockOpen, AMP Advisory Committee Facilitator)
  • Heather Meeker (Open Source Licensing Specialist, OSS Capital)
  • Tracy Miranda (Director of OS Community, CloudBees)
  • Nithya Ruff (Senior Director, open source program office, Comcast)
  • Josh Simmons (Sr. Open Source Strategist for Salesforce, OSI Board Director)

As part of the program announcement, OASIS is launching the first two Open Projects – Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC) and OpenDocument Format (ODF) Advocacy.

The OSLC Open Project advances a suite of standard REST APIs to connect data and achieve the digital thread across domains, applications, and organizations. It is sponsored by AirBus, Austrian Institute of Technology, Bank of America, Boeing, Dassault, Fujitsu, IBM, Koneksys, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Red Hat, Siemens, Software AG, and Tasktop.

“OSLC helps create standard REST APIs that solve industry integration challenges,” said Andrew Berezovskyi, of the KTH Royal Institute of Technology. “Open Projects enables the OSLC community to produce deliverables that meet requirements from various stakeholders without being hindered by the weight of foundation bureaucracy or the baggage that comes with financial, legal, technical, and marketing administration.”

The ODF (Open Document Format) Advocacy Open Project promotes the world’s leading document standard. After being approved as an OASIS Standard, ODF was recognized by ISO/IEC and endorsed by governments around the world as a way to ensure permanent access to data and eliminate the risk of vendor lock-in. The ODF Advocacy Open Project is sponsored by CIB and The Document Foundation.

“ODF guarantees perennial access to data that can be transferred in a transparent way between different apps, computers and operating systems, getting rid of hidden interoperability costs, vendor lock-in issues and license fees,” said Italo Vignoli, Co-Founder, The Document Foundation.”

Additional Open Projects for blockchain and other areas will be announced in the coming months. Further details about OASIS Open Projects are available here or email info@oasis-open-projects.org.
