Working with assertions

Assertions are characteristics that describe the capabilities of an endpoint.

You can define these capabilities along five dimensions: performance, reliability, interoperability, security, and manageability.

You have the ability to extend the industry ontology to add assertions that are custom to their enterprise IT environment.

At run time, the Business Services Dynamic Assembler uses these characteristics to find the best suited endpoint or service realization for a consumer based on their business requirements. In our meta-model, these business requirements are called policies.
