The Resource Registry is the core component of the gCube Information System designed to support the operation of a hybrid cloud-based infrastructure:

  • To capture, transmit, store, retrieve and manipulate data from any software system enabled on the infrastructure
    • Location and properties
    • Status, load, exploitation usage, and accounting data
  • To provide access to information, organized to enable
    • Monitoring, validation, and reporting
    • Elasticity and pooling of resources
  • To support any software system to
    • Discover services and infrastructure resources

The Resource Registry - core of a SOA within the complexities of a hybrid cloud-based infrastructure – must enable

  • a set of resource management functions
    • enabling functions
      • publication, discovery
      • monitoring, deployment
      • contextualization, security, execution
    • data management functions
      • access, store
      • index, search
      • transfer, transform
  • plus, a set of applications
    • built against those functions
  • Resource types: abstract view over functions
    • defined by specifications
    • multiple implementations, over time / concurrently
  • different implementations, different information
    • system cannot globally define them
    • implementations produce/consume different facets, independently
  • resource semantics dynamic
    • no longer predefined in class hierarchies
    • implicitly captured by current facets
    • changes over time / across “similar” resources

Architecture

The constituent components are:

Resource Registry Service

Resource Registry Service is the key component of the Information System Resource Registry. It is a web service running on SmartGears responsible to store information regarding the Infrastructure, in particular the global and partial view of:

  • the resources (e.g. computing, storage, services, software, datasets);
  • their current status (e.g. up and running, available);
  • their relationships with other resources.
  • the policies governing their exploitation.

Resource Registry is developed only by using the concepts defined in the IS Model and it provides the capabilities to enrich its knowledge by creating new types of entities and relations and their schemas.

Resource Registry is capable of serving different applications domains (i.e. Context). To achieve this goal the Resource Registry provides capabilities to manage Contexts (the contexts are hierarchical) and associate the entities and relations to one or more of the Contexts as requested by the different clients.

The Resource registry is also responsible to notify any update or creation of any entity or relation to Information System Subscription Notification Service.

Maven coordinates are:

Resource Registry Context Client

Resource Registry Schema is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Context Management. The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.

To use the Java library to interact with Context Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file.

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>
	<artifactId>resource-registry-context-client</artifactId>
	<version>[4.0.0,5.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
<dependency>

Resource Registry Schema Client

Resource Registry Schema is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Type Management port type. The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.

To use the Java library to interact with Context Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file.

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>
	<artifactId>resource-registry-schema-client</artifactId>
	<version>[4.0.0,5.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
<dependency>

Resource Registry Publisher

Resource Registry Publisher is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Instances Management and Instances Sharing Management. The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.

To use the Java library to interact with Context Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file.

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>
	<artifactId>resource-registry-publisher</artifactId>
	<version>[4.0.0,5.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
<dependency>

Resource Registry Client

Resource Registry Client is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Query & Access port type. The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.

To use the Java library to interact with Context Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file.
