[Fiware-coaches] IMPORTANT FINAL CHECK BY FIWARE COACHES of questionnaire and evaluation dashboard to be used for FIWARE usage assessment

[Silvio Cretti]

Dear Juanjo, all
here my comments:
1) I think we should clarify to the SMEs the meaning of "planned" usage.
What does it mean "planned" in this context? To have just an idea of use
it? To have evaluated their usage? The have a roadmap/design for using it?
...
2) in D (Lab usage) we give higher score to a SME that decided to create
its own cloud. Could we be a bit more precise on this? For example a SME
could just use the IaaS Resurce Management GE (based on Openstack) and
create its own cloud claiming the same score of another SME that is
providing a fully fledged FIWARE instance.
2.1) Always related to D: the questionnaire and the scorecard are providing
different questions. The questionnaire gives 3 points in case of a
dedicated cloud and 4 for the usage of blueprint for deploying the app
whereas the scorecard gives 3 for planning and 4 for implementation.
3) F (Degree of integration) is never used. Am I wrong? Is it made on
purpose?
4) Big Data: here the difference between the second and the third questions
is about "cluster" as opposed to "platform". Is it correct? What do we mean
with "cluster" in this context? And with "platform"? Does it make sense to
deploy Cosmos GE as "not a cluster". In my opinion yes but it is a trivial
deployment (not suitable for Hadoop purposes). Or do we mean "hadoop
federation" using the term "cluster"? I think this deserve a clarification.

Last but not least: I totally support the proposal of Frank to have a
common tool. It provides an uniform interface and speed up things. My
questions are:
a) you Frank need the list of SMEs + contact information. I image in order
to configure the tool to send emails to the SMEs. Is it correct?
b) then we as coaches can check the answers provided and in case remind the
SMEs, that did not yet respond, asking the tool to send a reminder. Correct?
c) does the tool provide automatically also the evaluation and the scoring
of the answers? I mean the calculation?
d) what do we as coaches have to do in order to use this tool?

Thanks in advance and best regards,
  silvio
