Current Developments
The developments we are currently working on are listed below. They come from the agreed development list, as defined by the Operational Tools Advisory Group (OTAG) who filters and prioritizes user requests.
- See: [GOCDB development items is available in the EGI RT ticket tracker]
- Feedback received on the new system is given at: GOCDB/Release4/Feedback
Support for a new RDBMS
- GOCDB currently relies heavily on Oracle PLSQL. Support is required for a new open source database. We are currently developing a new DB agnostic GOCDB back-end using an ORM mapping framework. This is planned for release in GOCDB v5 (~April/May). More info: Doctrine
Longer Term / Unconfirmed Roadmap
Multiple Endpoints Per Service
Extensiblity mechanism (Key-Value pair property bags)
- RT: https://rt.egi.eu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=3764
- GOCDB/Release4/Development/ExtensibilityMechanism
- Simiar to the GLUE2 extensibility mechanim, the core GOCDB entities (NGIs, Sites, Services, ServiceGroups, Endpoints) will be extended so that they can define an optional set of custom key-value pairs with PI query support.
Extend Scoping to Support Multiple Projects/Target Infrastructures
