UDDI requires that an entity should be assigned a key as its identifier for uniqueness when published. UDDI V2 keys are generated by UDDI nodes,so they lack readability and are non-portable.UDDI V3 uddiKey scheme prescribes that the form of keys must be URI,and the introduction of the conception of key partition make it possible for a new entity to be assigned a key by a pulisher.By studying uddiKey formats and its two assignment means,the solution to the old-version key issues was discussed and the key assignment policies in a single-registry and a multi-registry environment were suggested,the core of which is the guarantee of key uniqueness,especially in a multi-registry environment,a root registry is needed to take responsibility for key space assignment.
