Hi list,

to explore the Amdatu Platform M1 scope and wrote down an analysis of
what we have to do based on my expectations. It extends on the wiki
description [1] and once I get an initial round of feedback I'll copy
it back. Please give it a thorough review as we are expected to come
up with a highlevel workbreakdown and planning at the next f2f.

Milestone 1 - Amdatu Platform Provisioning

Milestone 1 will add provisioning support to the Amdatu Platform based
on an integration with Apache ACE. This will provide a working
mechanism for managing multiple Amdatu nodes from a centralized
provisioning server based on the current Apache ACE feature set and
WebUI. The result will be a initial provisioning mechanism against
which Amdatu subprojects and others can start building.

demo scenario:

First, John starts an Amdatu cluster running 3 instances of Amdatu OpenSocial.
Second, John develops a custom gadget and deployes it onto the 3 instances

1) John dowloads and launches an Amdatu AMS distribution
   alt1: John downloads and start an AMA launcher that gets auto
provisioned with AMS components from repository.amdatu.org
2) John configures the AMS by adding Amdatu Opensocial bundles,
groups, licenses through a command line REST client
   alt1: John configures the AMS by adding bundles, groups, licenses
through the ACE webui
   alt2: John provisions the bundle, group, license configuration of
Amdatu OpenSocial from an upstream repository (eg
repository.amdatu.org)
   alt3: An AMS auto provisions the bundle, group, license
configuration of official Amdatu artifacts automatically from an
upstream repository (eg repository.amdatu.org)
3) John launches 3 AMA nodes that report in with the AMS
4) John links licenses to the new AMA targets through a command line REST client
   alt1: John links licenses to the new AMA targets through teh ACE webui
   alt2: The AMAs get launched with a profile ID that the AMS can
match to licenses and thus auto provision
5) John fires up Eclipse and develops an Amdatu OpenSocial gadget
   alt1: John uses an archetype to get a flying start
6) John configures the AMS by adding his gadget bundle, group,
licenses, target through a command line REST client
   alt1: John configures the AMS by adding his gadget bundle, group,
licenses, target through the ACE webui
   alt2: AMS autobinds (new) bundles to a development license reducing
manual labor
7) John (re)deployes the gadget bundle from Maven or Eclipse (via AMS
REST interface)
8) Jonh refreshed het browser windows and sees his (lastest) gadget running
9) John is happy

use-cases:

1) Ability to launch an AMS with ACE server capabilities
2) Ability to launch multiple AMAs that connects to an AMS
3) Ability to manage artifacts to AMS via REST
4) Ability to manage groups in AMS via REST
5) Ability to manage licenses in AMS via REST
6) Ability to manage targets in AMS via REST
7) Ability to trigger AMA update via REST
7) Ability to deploy bundle from maven/eclipse

Workbreakdown:

1) Add REST interface to manage ACE server domain       (AMDATU-390)
2) Add REST interface to wakepup ACE client             (AMDATU-xxx)
3) Allow Amdatu Web to consume 3rd party servlets       (AMDATU-xxx)
4) Create initial Amdatu AMS with ACE server            (AMDATU-xxx)
5) Create initial Amdatu launcher based on ACE          (AMDATU-xxx)
6) Convert Amdatu platform config to metatype           (AMDATU-xxx)
7) Make Amdatu OpenSocial provisionable                 (AMDATU-xxx)
8) Integrate Eclipse/Maven/ACE REST interface           (AMDATU-xxx)
x) Allow initial AMS provisioning form upstream server?
x) Allow AMS Amdatu releases provisioning from upstream server?

Bram
