Bhathiya Jayasekara updated AIRAVATA-338: ----------------------------------------- Attachment: New-Patch.patch Hi Heshan, Updated patch-1 (New-Patch.patch) is attached. I added requested instructions to blog as well. Thanks. > [GSoC] Integrate Apache Sling to Apache Airavata Registry > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AIRAVATA-338 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-338 > Project: Airavata > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Registry API > Affects Versions: 0.4-INCUBATING > Reporter: Suresh Marru > Assignee: Heshan Suriyaarachchi > Priority: Minor > Labels: gsoc2012, mentor > Attachments: New-Patch.patch, Patch-1.patch, Patch-2.patch, > sling_api.patch > > > Implement the Sling support for Apache Airavata, currently Airavata has an > API to store/retrieve data from Jackrabbit, but its not scalable when to > handle large amount of data because of keeping the session in the client > side. Sling supports accessing Jackrabbit in REST full way. So we need to > come up with another API which looks like the current API but uses jackrabbit > through Sling Interface. The integration will require testing to ensure > Airavata tutorials will work as is out of the box. The current data > structures have limitations, so its strongly advisable to come up with > hierarchical tree structure to store different data categories. Airavata > community is very knowledgable on the requirements and will provide good > inputs. > User community & Impact of the software: Airavata is primarily targeted to > build science gateways using computational resources from various > disciplines. The initial targeted set of gateways include projects supporting > research and education in chemistry, life sciences, biophysics, environmental > sciences, geosciences astronomy and nuclear physics. The goal of airavata is > to enhance productivity of these gateways to utilize cyberinfrastructure of > resources (e.g., local lab resources, the Extreme Science and Engineering > Discovery Environment (XSEDE), the Open Science Grid (OSG), University > Clusters, Academic and Commercial Computational Clouds like FutureGrid & > Amazon EC2). By using open community based software components and services > like Airavata, gateways will be able to focus on providing additional > scientific capabilities and to expanding the number of supported users. The > capabilities of these gateways will offer clear benefits to society. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
