The Resource Registry is an Information System designed to support the operation of an 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 an 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. 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 Facet_Based_Resource_Model#Entity entities and Facet_Based_Resource_Model#Relation 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.

To reach its goals Resource Registry offers 4 port types:

Every Port type is exposed as REST API.

Every REST api is JSON based. This means that any content present in an HTTP request is formatted by using JSON standard.

Each port type and the provided API is presented in the section Interacting with Resource Registry Service

Resource Registry Context Client

Resource Registry Schema is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Context Management port type. The library hide all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and result. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of json object.

Resource Registry Schema Client

Resource Registry Schema is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Schema Management port type. The library hide all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and result. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of json object.

Resource Registry Publisher

Resource Registry Publisher is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with ER Management port type. The library hide all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and result. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of json object.

Resource Registry Client

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

Interacting with Resource Registry Service

This sections provide information regarding hot to interact with Resource Registry Service. REST and JAVA API are presented for each functionality.

Context Management

It is responsible for managing Context belonging to the same Application Domain.

Security configuration based on Authorization Framework make this port type accessible only from Resource Manager. In other words no others client is allowed to manage Context rather than Resource Manager.

Context requirements:

  • No predefined number of levels.
  • Possibility to change the name of the Context with no impact for any component.
  • Possibility to move a Context from a parent Context to another.

Available Methods:

Any action made to Contexts succeed if the following requirements are guaranteed:

  • Two Context with same name can exist but only if they have different parents. The operation which will try to obtain a Context with the same name to the same parent will fails with no effect.
  • Any operation made in any Context has effect only to the Context. In other words, there will be no effect on the associated Entity and Relations.

Type Definition

Any Type is described by the following attributes:

  • name (String): Type Name

ER Management

Apart the REST API this port type can be used also by using a Java client

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>
	<artifactId>resource-registry-publisher</artifactId>
	<version>[1.0.0-SNAPSHOT, 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
</dependency>

To use the client you need first get a resourceRegistryPublisher instance. By using create method the library automatically query the Information System to get the correct endpoint for the current context.

SecurityTokenProvider.instance.set("Your-NextNext-Token-Here"); //If not already set
ResourceRegistryPublisher resourceRegistryPublisher = ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory.create();
