Two Main Chalenges

• Simplify message transport• Improve the way we are dealing with

semantics

…Also– Must be done in a way that allows easy access to

SME’s…

More than a Hub

Single Point Of Access • Globally Addressable

• Secure

• Independent from Semantics or Applications

• Independent from Vendor or Provider

• Simple and Easy to Use

Overall challenge

Trust

Registry

Sender Receiver

Why should I trust?

How do I advertise my capabilities?Who can I reach?

Where can I send my document?

How do I transport my document?

Busdox – Business Document Interchange

Preparing the e-freight Access Point Architecture

• Service Metadata Locator (SML):

• The SML is the key component of enabling the register for exchange of business documents.

• ROOT PKI (Circle of trust)

• The ROOT PKI is used to create the core circle of trust between AP’s, SMP’s and SML.

• Together with the usage of SAML Sender Vouches assertion tokens this create a flexible – yet trustworthy – 4-corner model for realising the foundation of electronic documents exchange

• The BusDox specifications

• Is now target of a OASIS technical committee working on the standardization of the current specification

Simple, Easy to Use and… little investment

requirements• Development and Integration cannot not be

mandatory, SME’s must be able to use off-the-shelf compatible apps

• Guidance and Support for legacy system integration must be a part of the overall architecture, even if this interface will be the last to be developed

Semantics

• Profiles define na actor comunicaion capability.• Profiles represent a process not a message, in

processes a conversation or protocol envolving a set of messages is clearly defined

• All profiles have a core imutable version, ensuring minimum compatability, but can be extended using conbinations ofspecific modules for specific scenarios

• THERE ARE NO “IMPLEMENTATION GUIDES”

INTERNET

• Single connections point for applications, able to relay information to other access points.

• Can be implemented in-house if data security or privacy is a concern. This is a decision comparable to use an external e-mail provider or implement the server in-house.

• Actors declare support for profiles, ensuring

interoperability at the semantic level

• Extensible to host other services like Stores, Tracking,TSD or STD repository

Stores And Apps

• Typically , small and off-the-shelf applications serving specific functions and market requirements

• Readily available applications, supporting e-Freight profiles

• Multiple stores and vendors may and shall coexist, allowing the actors to chose the best suited solution for their needs, without compromising interoperability

Stores and Apps

Make e-freight compatible applications available to actors.

Compatible Solutions

• Typically these will be large scale systems design to meet specific needs of a given actor or customized solutions

• These will use the e-freight framework and services by connecting to a E-Freight provider, exposing support for a given number of profiles

• Examples are: Single windows, large transport provider systems, authorities, existing and legacy systems, typically , small and off-the-shelf applications serving specific functions and market requirements
