GOCDB
- Automatic DNS switching to failover instance
- Automatic DNS switching to dynamically re-point the goc.egi.eu domain still needs to be investigated.
- GOCDB v5
- GOCDB v5 is scheduled for release end ~April/May. This will introduce changes to the existing PI (documented at https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Doctrine). This release will require acceptance testing by dependent PTs.
- The failover will need to be updated simultaneously on production release.
- V5 will introduce more non-exclusive scope tags for hosting multiple projects in the same instance (details below). The existing scope PI parameter will support a comma-separated list of scope values rather than exclusive EGI or Local scope values (Aug/Sept).
