Two reliable messaging specifications are working their way into the industry:
Web Services Reliability (WS-Reliability): A SOAP-based protocol for exchanging SOAP messages with guaranteed delivery, no duplicates and guaranteed message ordering. Sponsors: Sun Microsystems Inc., Fujitsu Ltd., Hitachi Ltd., Oracle Corp., NEC Corp. and Sonic Software Corp.
WS-ReliableMessaging: A transport-independent protocol that allows messages to be delivered reliably between distributed applications in the event of software component, system or network failures. Sponsors: IBM, Microsoft Corp., BEA Systems Inc. and Tibco Software Inc.
It's still uncertain which specification will become the industry standard, although Anne Thomas Manes, an analyst at Burton Group, is advising clients to bet on WS-ReliableMessaging because it's backed by more industry heavyweights. Users can also begin using WS-ReliableMessaging as a patch from San Francisco-based Cape Clear Software Inc., as well as in Cambridge, Mass.-based Systinet Corp.'s Server for Java.
