Hi Mario,
Thanks for this draft and your feedback on the other threads.
While I understand the need for standardization (and I support that),
even if EPP over HTTP is not widely used, I wonder if the future could
not be REST API considering that new APIs are mostly built that way? I
don’t suggest doing it that way, but out of curiosity and a look into
the further future.
If you are suggesting to start the discussion about a radically change
of EPP to make it more compliant with REST API principles (I mean,
replacing XML with JSON, using different authentication mechanisms,
distinguishing endpoints based on the operations), I would be happy with
that but I imagine that such a process would take considerable time and
should be supported by large consensus within the WG.
IMO, just the transition to a schemaless command/response format would
bring more flexibility and a significant reduction of the implementation
effort.
This proposal aims only at definining rules for the existing (and
possible future) implementations. Its main goal is to map EPP over HTTP
without altering the EPP semantics.
Best,
Mario
Best,
Tobias

Hi folks,
Just posted a draft about EPP over HTTP. It aims to define rules for
the EPP implementations leveraging HTTP due to its simplicity and
ease of use.
The proposal preserves EPP commands semantics as HTTP is used merely
for transportation.
The appendix includes possible strategies about how to implement load
balancing in this context.
Even if EPP is largely implemented over TCP, some HTTP based
implementations exist and a standardization would be advisable.
Feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Best,
Mario

Title: Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP) Transport over HTTP

Abstract:
This document describes how the Extensible Provisioning Protocol
(EPP) is mapped over the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). This
mapping requires the use of the Transport Layer Security (TLS)
protocol to protect information exchanged between an EPP client and
an EPP server.
