Integration and Interoperability: Infrastructure Management

IMPORTANT NOTICE: The content of this area is tentative.

Objective

The main objective of this task is to define and provide the formal APIs for resources that fall under the functional category of "Infrastructure Management" according to the https://gcube.wiki.gcube-system.org/gcube/index.php/GCube_Integration_and_Interoperability_Facilities_Development_Methodology methodology] defined. More specifically the task will provide multi-protocol APIs (e.g.. Java, REST, SOAP, depending on the need and relevance) and related implementation components for the easy consumption for a number of facilities that fall in the Data Access Layer. It is expected that the procedures that fall under this analysis will follow the top-down approach and will rich a meeting point with the tasks driven from the top-down approach.

Functional Areas

• Monitoring F.A.
• Security F.A.
• Resource Management F.A.

Interoperable points

• Directory services
• Security descriptors / credentials etc
• Monitoring protocols (SNMP, ...)
