This paper, 'Management Using Web Services, A Proposed Architecture and Roadmap' characterizes challenges facing the IT systems management community and defines a roadmap and strategy for the evolution of management systems to support emerging business environments. It explains how a common approach for manageability (using Web services infrastructure) can simplify the management solutions for both existing systems and systems based upon emerging Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA). It defines a comprehensive Web services based systems management architecture that supports, integrates, and unifies several popular management models and technologies in a way to manage any IT resource in a platform and language-neutral manner. We believe that WSDM, WSRF, and WS-Notification are some of the foundation standards for this Roadmap.
