Protocol Number and Name |
Description |
Stability Index |
|---|---|---|
|
Protocol 0: Core (For more information, see 1.3.1 Protocol 0: Session Management (or Core Protocol).) |
Creates and manages ETP sessions. |
3 - Stable |
|
Protocol 1: ChannelStreaming (For more information, see 1.3.2 Protocol 1: Channel Streaming.) |
Defines a set of messages for exchanging channel-oriented data, where a channel is a time or depth series of individual data points |
3 - Stable |
|
Protocol 2: ChannelDataFrame |
Transfers arrays of channel data as data frames, where a frame is an array of values for a given set of channels aligned at a common index point. |
1 - Experimental |
|
Protocol 3: Discovery |
Uses a RESTful (representational state transfer) approach to enable store customers to enumerate and understand the contents of a store of data objects. |
3 - Stable |
|
Protocol 4: Store |
Used to perform CRUD operations (create, retrieve, update and delete) on data objects in a store. The roles for the Store protocol are “store” and “customer”. |
3- Stable |
|
Protocol 5: StoreNotification |
Used to allow store customers to receive notification of changes to data objects in the store in an event-driven manner. |
2 - Unstable |
|
Protocol 6: GrowingObject |
Used to manage the growing parts of data objects that are index-based (i.e., time and depth) but are not appropriate for the Channel Streaming protocol. |
2 - Unstable |
|
Protocol 7: DataArray |
Used to transfer large, binary arrays of heterogeneous data values. |
1 - Experimental |
|
Protocol 8: WitsmlSoap |
Allows ETP clients to make WITSML 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4 server calls using ETP instead of SOAP. Used to support earlier versions of the WITSML specification over ETP. |
1 - Experimental |
|
Protocol 9-1999 |
Undefined. Reserved for future use. |
NA |
|
Protocol 2000+ |
Custom. Available for custom use (not Energistics). |
NA |
