Persistent Systems Pvt. Ltd. "Bhageerath", 402, Senapati Bapat Road, Pune 16, India "Leading provider of Outsourced Software Product Development (OPD) services."

July 4, 2005 – till date

Persistent pioneered the OPD model 15 years ago and has over 150 customers world over, with 700+ product releases. Our customers range from Fortune 500 companies to companies that are in the startup phase. I joined Persistent so that I may learn the latest technology and trends related to J2EE.

Here, at Persistent, my job revolves around Web Services Management and UDDI (Universal Description Discovery & Integration) Registry. I have worked on development of various APIs as per UDDI V3 specifications and a few proprietary APIs to support Search Functionality within a UDDI registry. A UDDI information model is composed of instances of the following entity types:

businessEntity: Describes a business or other organization that typically provides Web services.

businessService: Describes a collection of related Web services offered by an organization described by a businessEntity.

bindingTemplate: Describes the technical information necessary to use a particular Web service.

tModel: Describes a "technical model" representing a reusable concept, such as a Web service type, a protocol used by Web services, or a category system.

publisherAssertion: Describes, in the view of one businessEntity, the relationship that the businessEntity has with another businessEntity.

subscription: Describes a standing request to keep track of changes to the entities described by the subscription.

At persistent I got exposed to various software development lifecycle processes. It also provided me the opportunity to get involved into 'Client Interaction', 'Requirement Collection', 'Design Process', 'Development Process' and finally 'Testing and Bug fixing Process'.
