This is a tentative proposal for Facilities Specifications. According to the iMarine DoW, the following Facilities should be documented by using this template:
- WP8 - iMarine Data e-Infrastructure Enabling-technology Development
- Data e-Infrastructure Management Facilities
- Data e-Infrastructure Policy-oriented Security Facilities
- Workflow Management Facilities
- WP9 - Data Management Facilities Development
- Data Access and Storage Facilities
- Data Transfer Facilities
- Data Assessment, Harmonisation, and Certification Facilities
- WP10 - Data Consumption Facilities Development
- Data Retrieval Facilities
- Data Manipulation Facilities
- Data Mining Facilities
- Data Visualisation Facilities
- WP11 - Data e-Infrastructure Integration and Interoperability Facilities Development
- Data Management APIs
- Data Consumption APIs
In addition to that, a number of applications will be developed, namely by combining these facilities in predefined workflows. These might stem from WP6 activities. These applications will be described through the same template.
Overall we should refrain from using terminology that is inherited by the project organisation, namely WPs and Tasks.
For each of the above described facilities, the following sections should be created: Overview, Key Features and Subsystems.
Overview
Few lines with a promotional 'flavour', e.g. "gCube xxx facilities offer scalable, high-performance, reliable, open source instruments for ..."
Key Features
A bullet list highlighting the main features offered by the facilities. The 'flavour' should be catchy and user-friendly. Some examples are (from MongoDB):
- Document-oriented storage
- JSON-style documents with dynamic schemas offer simplicity and power.
- Full Index Support
- Index on any attribute, just like you're used to.
- Replication & High Availability
- Mirror across LANs and WANs for scale and peace of mind.
- Auto-Sharding
- Scale horizontally without compromising functionality.
