Requirement

Title

SWIM TI Profile and interface bindings

Identifier

SWIM-SERV-250

Requirement

A service description shall include or refer to information about the profile and interface bindings for each service interface, including:

  • the selected SWIM TI Profile and its version;
  • a reference to a service interface binding as specified in the selected SWIM TI Profile;
  • a reference to a network interface binding as specified in the selected SWIM TI Profile; and
  • references to additionally supported requirements as specified in the selected SWIM TI Profile.

Rationale

To support the concept of interoperability between the service provider and service consumer, the SWIM TI Profiles only allow a certain set of technical solutions, which can be chosen by the service designer.

This is used by technical experts to assess feasibility to implement.

Verification

Completeness: Verify that the reference information is provided for each provider side and consumer side interface.

Consistency: Verify that the selected service interface binding, network interface binding and additionally supported requirements are consistent with the selected SWIM TI Profile and version.

Correctness: Not Applicable.

Examples/Notes

Note: If configuration options are available in the service interface binding, it is best practice to document them (e.g. use of GZIP compression, Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) encoding).

Example additionally supported requirements:

  • “SWIM-TIYP-0092, SWIM-TIYP-0098”.

Level of Implementation

Mandatory
