Basic Concepts
- Two typologies of entities are envisaged:
- Resources, i.e. entities representing a description of "thing" to be managed;
- Every Resource is characterised by a number of Facets.
- Facets, i.e. entities contributing to "build" a description of a Resource. Every facet, once attached to a Resource profile captures a certain aspect / characterization of the resource;
- Every facet is characterised by a number of properties;
- Entities and relations can be specialized.
- A number of specializations are identified below. Such specializations are managed by the gCube Core services, i.e. Core services builds upon these specialization to realize its management tasks;
- Other specializations can be defined by clients, the system make it possible to store these additional typologies of relations and facets and to discover them.
- On relations:
- Any relation has a direction, i.e. a "source" (out bound of the relation) and a "target" (in bound of the relation). Anyway the relation can be also navigated in the opposite direction;
- It is not permitted to define a Relation having a Facet as "source". In other words:
- It is not permitted to define a Relation connecting a Facet with another one;
- It is not permitted to define a Relation connecting a Facet with a Resource (as target);
- A Facet instance can be linked (by consistsOf or any specialization of it) from different Resources.
Property
Any Property can be enriched with the following attributes:
- Name : Property Name
- Type : The Type of the Property (e.g. String, Integer, ...). See Property Type
- Description : The description of the Property.
default=null.
- Mandatory (M): Indicate if the Property is mandatory.
default=false.
- ReadOnly (RO): The Property cannot change its value.
default=false.
- NotNull (NN):
default=false
- Max (Max):
default=null
- Min (Min):
default=null
- Regexpr (Reg)): A Regular Expression to validate the property value.
default=null

Derived Property Type
The following are obtained using a String as real type and adding a validation regex.
| Type
|
Description
|
Java type
|
| Enum
|
by default it is represented using the String representation of the Enum. So that the primitive type used will be String. The enumeration is checked by setting Regexpr property. The Regular Expression is auto-generated and it will be something like (FIRST-ENUM-STRING_REPRESENTATION|SECOND-ENUM-STRING_REPRESENTATION|...|LAST_ENUM_STRING_REPRESENTATION).
Otherwise (if indicated using an annotation), it can be represented using the Integer value of the Enum. So that the primitive type used will be Integer. The enumeration is checked using Max and Min properties.
|
java.lang.Enum or enum
|
| UUID
|
String representation of the UUID. The check is obtained using the regular expression ([a-fA-F0-9]{8}-[a-fA-F0-9]{4}-[a-fA-F0-9]{4}-[a-fA-F0-9]{4}-[a-fA-F0-9]{12}){1}
|
java.util.UUID
|
| URL
|
String representation of the URL. The check is obtained using a regex available at https://mathiasbynens.be/demo/url-regex (see diegoperini one).
|
java.net.URL
|
| URI
|
String representation of the URI. The check is obtained using .
|
java.net.URI
|
Every Entity and Relation has an Header automatically filled by the System. The Header has the following properties:
| Name
|
Type
|
Description
|
Attributes
|
| uuid
|
UUID
|
This uuid can be used to univocally identify the Entity or the Relation
|
Mandatory=true NotNull=true ReadOnly=true
|

|
Filled at creation time. The creator is retrieved using the authorization token
|
Mandatory=true NotNull=true ReadOnly=true

|
| lastUpdateTime
|
Datetime

Last Update time in milliseconds. Represent the difference, measured in milliseconds, between the last update time and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC
|
Mandatory=true NotNull=true
|
Resources and (isRelatedTo) Relations
Facets
Early ideas and thinking on facets were documented at 2nd Generation Resource Model : Facets
Facet
Every Facet has:
Access Point Facet
The goal of this facet is expected to capture information on “access points” for a resource, i.e. any endpoint to interact with the resource via a known protocol.

Best practices and guidelines
- On Facet instances "reuse" across Resource Profiles:
- This can be guaranteed automatically by the system, if and just in the case the system want to avoid duplication of information. It is based on a configuration policy;
- This MUST be done only when a change in a facet instance MUST affect a change in all Resources connected to such a Facet.
Suggested Extensions
The gCube Resource Model supports extensions at runtime meaning that new facets, relations, and resources can be defined and registered at any time by authorized clients. Those extensions must necessarily specialize an existing gCube Entity.
An example of those specializations is the following:
Functionality Related Facet
The goal of this facet is to capture what are the facilities supported by the Service Entity and it aims to model the service interface.
