Abstract
One aspect of the present invention can include a method, a computer program product, an apparatus, and a system for handling Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI) updates to entities. The aspect can receive at least one update to be applied to a UDDI entity within a UDDI registry. Each received update can be applied to the related UDDI entity. At least one subscriber of the updated entity can be determined. A status indicator for each detected subscriber can be changed to indicate that a subscription to the entity has been deleted, wherein the change to the status indicator negates a need to scan the subscriptions associated with the entity for each received update to the entity.
