Install the UDDI Services Database

  • Article

The UDDI Services Database provides data storage services for a site. A UDDI Services site can have only one active database. In a distributed installation, the UDDI Services Database is installed into a database instance on an existing installation of SQL Server. If this is the initial installation for a UDDI Services site, after you install the database you install UDDI Services Web Application on one or more servers.

In addition to storing site data, UDDI Services Database also stores all site-wide configuration settings, such as the name of the site, its user group mappings, and the site’s use of cryptography and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. When you install UDDI Services, you install the database first, and when you want to connect to a remote site, you specify the computer that hosts the database.

To install the UDDI Services Database on a clustered instance of SQL Server 2005, you must install the UDDI Services Database on the active node of the cluster first and then install the UDDI Services Database on each of the passive nodes.
