Let me phrase that a little better. We should make it as easy as possible for people to get Airavata and its supporting services up and running. But embedding services in a single VM seems like a drain on effort to support an artificial use case. I think it is more interesting to look at a coordinating framework above Maven that can build and deploy Airavata and services in a simple way for new users that also will scale to a production deployment.

For what it worth, I think we should find a different route than embedding if this is only to make it easy for downloaders to get up and running.

Hi Suresh, Ideally, WSO2 IS (and other WSO2 products in general) can be run in embedded mode. However, there will be many implications of doing that such as increasing the size of the Airavata distribution (WSO2 IS default distribution is 315 MB - you can install only the necessary features, however, that will not decrease the additional size significantly) and slowing down the Airavata startup. Therefore, IMO, it is good to run it separately (since Airavata already depends on such separately run servers such as RabbitMQ). However, if you want to consider embedding it, I can test it at PoC level and report the exact implications (such as the increase in the size of the distribution etc.). Let me know what you think. Best Regards, Hasini.

But just curious if identity server can be run in embedded mode? Suresh
