[Fiware-apps] Packaging Planning

[Heller, Markus]

Dear WP3,

In today's telco we have defined 2 Packages for the Apps chapter.

I plan to forward this list as our chapter's package list to the coordinator on or after Wednesday 19.02 EOB:

1) Package 1:

-          Name: "Business Framework Provisioning Package" (focus is on provisioning)

-          Lead: ATOS, Partners: ATOS, UPM, SAP

-          Used GEs: COMPEL, Store, Marketplace, Repository

-          Delivery: not recipes. Delivered as 1 single VM image with installed + integrated GEs to be offered in FI-LAB as "dedicated instances".

-          FI-WARE Catalog Pages: SAP can create them

-          Timeline: TBD (Release 3)

-          Comments:

n  Identity Management is left out here (agreed) and is used in package 2.

n  Story: User uses Store to create an offering (including adding metadata like WSDL link) and to publish it in Marketplace. COMPEL users can find/search it and use it....

n  Technically: The service USDL includes as metadata a "link to WSDL". COMPEL relies on this and can access the offered service via WDSL

n  Enhancement needed in Store so that user can add metadata in USDL. Rest is integrated.

2) Package 2:

-          Name: "Business Framework Consumption Package" (focus is on consumption)

-          Lead: UPM, Partners: UPM, TID, SAP

-          Used GEs: Wirecloud, Store, Marketplace, Repository, RSS, Identity Management

-          Delivery: RECIPE-based solution that create/populates the solution into FI-LAB to be offered in FI-LAB as "dedicated instance (recipes)" (Plan B: like package 1)

-          FI-WARE Catalog Pages: SAP can create them

-          Timeline: TBD (Release 3)

-          Comments:

n  Identity Management integrated already and mandatory (ensure that same user performs actions)

n  RSS is only available as a "Global instance" and would run separately. The packaged GES access it via the URLS provided.


Please comment or add if needed to these candidate descriptions per mail to mailing list.

If other WP3 partners would like to also propose their own packages, you must do via mail to the apps mailing list until Wednesday 19.02. Lunchtime latest (tomorrow).
I will send our list on or after tomorrow EOB to Juanjo. Juanjo collects it and plans to send out an official mail listing all planned "packages" in the chapters this week (announced: Thursday 20.02).

Best wishes
Markus

Subject: Packaging Planning

Hi,

as in the telco, based on Juanjo's Mails from Monday on packaging and our discussion today. We start a brainstorming now:
- packaging is not restricted to a low-level technical integration of GEs or technical availability of a GE in FI-Lab or else alone. It instead should be thought in a "business sense", a solution package with identifiable Business Value for a user of that package.
- we try to find a uniform method to deliver packages per GE and start discussion now how this looks like.
- each GE owner can ultimately decide if he would like to create one for his GEs. I recommend in light of making our stuff more easily consumable and also Arian has emphasized that he favors packages and really demands them.


I.                    How does a package look like / how realized?

"1 GE package"
- A document (PDF/Flyer?) with data to link to a instance on FI-LAB
- business level address to the consumer: You benefit with this business value: XY, it costs you:, yiou will save time+frustration....
- licensing infomation
- contains written docu (e.g. compiled out of existing docu)
- webinar stuff somehow added
- What else?


"Multi-GE-Package"
- A document (PDF/Flyer?) with data to link to a instance on FI-LAB
- business level address to the consumer: You benefit with this business value: XY, it costs you:, yiou will save time+frustration....
- licensing infomation
- contains written docu (e.g. compiled out of existing docu)
- webinar stuff somehow added
- What else?
- Attention: What if multiple licenses are affected. How do we address that excactly?



II. Who plans a package: Please add here if you intend to deliver such and indicate when this will be really available:


A.      "1GE-Package" Planned Packages per GE Candidates)
- SAP     Repository (M36)
- SAP     Marketplace (M36)
- SAP     Registry (M36)
- (Yours)
- ...

B. "Multi-GE-Package" Planned bigger packages (candidates)

[...]


Please reply to the mailing list with us all in CC.

Best wishes
Markus
