Several VO-level services require specific configuration at VO scope in order to be functional. This “Configuration” is modelled as a gCube Resource and kept in the Information System.

Each resource is a centralized configuration unit called Generic Resource.

  • their payload is usually service-specific XML
  • new (not currently existing) services can register their own generic resources;
  • generic resources are published to the Information System (IS);
  • many of these resources are prerequisites for the bootstrapping process of the Information Retrieval area.
