Hi All, In Stratos 4.0.0 Stratos Manager, Cloud Controller and Autoscaler store their artifacts in registry in binary format (Java objects are serialized and stored). This might cause problems when migrating an existing Stratos deployment to a newer version with changes in above artifacts.
Therefore it would be better if we could change this format to JSON or something similar which could be easily read and updated if the definitions of the artifacts change in a newer Stratos version. More importantly we might need to create tasks in JIRA to prepare migration scripts if we do any modifications to the above artifacts once 4.0.0 release is done. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STRATOS-664 Thanks -- Imesh Gunaratne Technical Lead, WSO2 Committer & PPMC Member, Apache Stratos
