Andrei:
In our experience with SOA’s
spanning multiple organizations, the transactions till recently are still “trusted
partner” scenarios. The primary driver for this kind of integration of
course is the reduction in overhead of transacting across organizations.
I believe that what we are seeing today is
the movement towards Service Oriented Integration (mostly with XML based
Services) at least being a checkbox item in choosing and selecting a customer.
I have yet to come across a case where the
actual selection process itself happens over a Service Oriented Interface where
these elements need to be automated, manifested in the context of a third party
“exchange” style registry and used to build the relationship. I
believe there is a finite amount of technology already evolved to address this
but it is a more business model/business process change for people.
It might be useful however to foresee such
an end state and discuss some of the technologies that might go into making
this “vision” a reality.

[service-orientated-architecture] Dealing with trust
Andrei,
I guess you are looking for "Power seller" and feedback feature what
eBay provides on their site. Where a buyer and customer both rate each other
and provide feedback for the same. As per my limited knowledge I did not come
across many service providers having this feature. But yah a 3rd party
providing this service sounds like a good idea.
Cheers :)

Hi,
I'm thinking of some b2b scenarios. I'm a company that needs to buy
sprockets because I'm building bikes. Say I manage to find in some
cross-organization registry the service interfaces of 10 sprocket
sellers and somehow I know how to use all of them. Now I have to
choose one and order 500 sprockets. How do I address the issue of
trust? Which one of the 10 sellers is most trust-worthy? I don't mean
QoS or security, I mean which one is least likely to send me defective
sprockets, which one is least likely to be late with my order, which
one is least likely to be a phantom site ripping me off?
I know about the ways you can express "trust information" in a WS
service interface. But the key issue is that this information has to
be true, so it has to somehow be managed by a third (trusted) party
(some government agency?). Or the track record of delivering orders of
that seller is available somewhere, again under the control of some
trusted third party.
What are the ways to deal with this?
Thanks,
Andrei
