20 Nov 2007 In this five-part "Building
a grid system using WS-Resource Transfer" series, we look at the use
of WS-Resource Transfer (WS-RT) in different areas of the grid environment --
from using it as a method for storing and recovering general information about
grid-to-grid monitoring and management, and security. We also examine how WS-RT can
be used for the distribution and division of work. In any grid, there is a huge
amount of metadata about the grid that needs
to be stored and distributed. Using WS-RT makes sharing the information, especially
the precise information required by different systems in the grid, significantly
easier. Here in Part 4, we look at both sides of the security session, both in terms
of using WS-RT as an aid to the authorization process and at combining WS-Security
with WS-RT for secure resource exchange.
