Chris A. Mattmann commented on CLIMATE-522:
-------------------------------------------

+1 this sounds great Lewis. I think it would be really nice as well to make 
Gora talk to OPeNDAP through the Java OPeNDAP API - this would make Gora able 
to read in Science Data and I think achieve (through this issue) exactly what 
we are aiming for.

> Before long we will wish to support more than what we currently can.
> There is a service at 
> https://github.com/apache/climate/blob/master/rcmet/src/main/python/rcmes/storage/rcmed.py#L26
> which provides us with a list of parameters from which we obtain data, 
> however it is only natural that the next step is to provide other data 
> sources over and above this one... baring in mind that a GET request of the 
> current URL above currently gives me a temp unavailable reponse!
> For this issue I would propose that we consider an existing framework for 
> providing access to climate data. After some primative research I've compiled 
> the following list
>  *  https://github.com/jpvanhal/siilo - provides access to Local Filesystem, 
> Apache Libcloud and Amazon S3. Libcloud provides access to a plethora of 
> cloud storage services.
>  * https://github.com/okfn/ofs - S3, Google Storage, Eucalytus, Archive.org, 
> Filesystem (via pairtree), 'REST' Store and Riak (buggy)
>  * https://github.com/apache/gora/ - Access to HBase, Accumulo, Cassandra, 
> HDFS, Local Filesystem, DynamoDB, Solr, MongoDB and other stores coming soon.
> The main motivation here is to open up climate for accesing more data. I am 
> personally VERY interested in pursuing the ticket for GORA-342 which we could 
> hopefully bake the existing rcmed code into.
