Redevelop the xml_output module to implement nested XML collections
probably using the Query2XML package. This is necessary because the existing XML Output module will only generate flat XML documents (e.g. that often map to individual DB entities). Currently SQL joins/associations between Sites, SEs and URLs cannot be represented as hierarchical/nested XML documents (for example, consider nesting multiple EndpointLocation objects and URLs within a single ServiceEndpoint element, see: Media:GocdbGlue2UnicoreV2.pdf). It is likely that this is a requirement for regionalisation to implement the proposed XML 'synch' docs described at: https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/GOCDB/Release4/Regionalisation/Data_Transfer_Format
Render GOCDB data in GLUE2 Format
GOCDB/Release4/Development/GLUE2Compatibility.
Regionalisation
- GOCDB4 Regionalisation Status and Plans - More details on regionalisation and progress of Standalone deployments within NGIs.
Feedback
Feedback received on the new system is given at: GOCDB/Release4/Feedback
Development Roadmap
- Replace current XML output module to cater for nested XML collections
- Generating valid GLUE2 XML document from GOCDB data, see: GOCDB/Release4/Development/GLUE2Compatibility.
- Multiple Endpoints Per Service
- [Not confirmed] Support for VOs (maybe query SEs by supported VO)
- A re-prioritization exercise will then determine the next major developments.
