Hi everybody, this is to remind our tomorrow telecon: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.glue-wg/wiki/PhoneMeeting2... in the wiki page, resource section, you'll find a new XML Schema rendering with example about the service and endpoint from CNAF. I invite all the participants to produce and send to the list more examples. Please, send examples also for entities discussed last week. So far, only the CNAF ones were sent around.

Sergio, I had hoped to attend but with the change of day this is not possible. I am still not too happy with the service/endpoint split however I do see some benefits. I would very much like to see the service data and related services preserved from GLUE 1.3. The "OtherInfo" field is not sufficient as it cannot be used efficiently. Specifically: - I would like to see a separate entity ServiceData with two attributes Key and Value and a 0 to many relationship to service. - I would like to see a many to many (directed) relationship between services to represent the fact that any service may have a set of related services. The precise meaning of that relationship is to be defined by the publisher of that information. Note that it is essential that it is considered to be directional. Both of the above features are assumed by the SAGA ServiceDiscovery API which is about to be sent out for public comment. It is currently exploited in GLUE 1.3 by the data management people Steve

real use cases will show if we go for the right path, in a few telecons it should be everything more clear
I would very much like to see the service data and related services preserved from GLUE 1.3. The "OtherInfo" field is not sufficient as it cannot be used efficiently. Specifically:
the no.9 draft inclues section 4, Auxiliaries Entities, they extend the concept of ServiceData to every GLUE Class (called now Extension)
- I would like to see a separate entity ServiceData with two attributes Key and Value and a 0 to many relationship to service.
covered by Extension as a general mechanism
- I would like to see a many to many (directed) relationship between services to represent the fact that any service may have a set of related services. The precise meaning of that relationship is to be defined by the publisher of that information. Note that it is essential that it is considered to be directional.
ok, I will add this; do you think that this relationship should have attributes?
Both of the above features are assumed by the SAGA ServiceDiscovery API which is about to be sent out for public comment. It is currently exploited in GLUE 1.3 by the data management people
ok, we'll cover them for sure; please re-check on next draft. and from your following email:
The Quality level, if we *really* want it belongs to the endpoint rather than the service
this was raised during the telecon; at the moment we've put in both service and endpoint; to be cleaned-up based on examples
The complexity is redundanct - and therefore evil
there was discussion also on this; the general principle is that to have some summary attribute that could in theory be derived from finer-grained info can be useful to simplify the queries; in particular, this attribute is strongly required by NorduGrid; they have something similar in their current production information service and consider it very useful
The endpoint looks rather big! All references to xxxVendor should be changed to avoid the word vendor as many software providers do not sell their products. ok, we'll discuss this next Thursday.
Cheers, Sergio

Of lesser importance to me: The Quality level, if we *really* want it belongs to the endpoint rather than the service The complexity is redundanct - and therefore evil The endpoint looks rather big!
