Hi Koen,

Thanks so far for your package description, looks good to me.

Be aware, that the proposal goes directly to Arian from Juanjo, so that we might either get the confirmations or we might even better leave it out. But I really do not know what to advise you since I do not know really how important this is played by Arian and Juanjo has not told anything about this how serious such commitment would be if given. I therefore personally would assess this as "no way back" package proposal.

For example, I need the confirmation by Camille and Tanguy urgently then so that I can send this out to JH.
Otherwise I mark this as "planned, pending final confirmation".

--> Please can you Koen decide asap and mail me today if I should leave it out (without confirmation Camille/Tanguy), insert it marked as "pending", or leave out completely.

We can say: I will delay this and send it tomorrow morning so that you have more time, but then I need to send it (unless Juanjo changes his mind). Maybe some packages can be named as candidates even later....(do not know).

Best wishes
Markus

Hi Markus, all,



My first suggestion would be the following (note that this should still be checked by Camille and Tanguy):

package 3 - BEMES: Integrated Multi-level business modeling and simulation toolkit
    Lead iMinds
    Used GEs: Business Modeler, Business Calculator (there could be possibilities to link to repository and/or RSS)
    Delivered as (a) 1 single VM image with installed + integrated GEs to be offfered in FILAB as dedicated instances
    Delivered as (b) 1 integrated SaaS test-version online (outside of the FILAB)
    Delivered as (c) a recipe for setting up an own version and integrating both GEs together with integration testing procedures
    TimeLine: R3.3
    Comments:
        Story: The installation in (a) allows for a quick installation of a testversion in the FiLAB with all interactions between the tools automated and/or relative to the server path.
                    This will allow for the business modeling and simulation tools to be setup in a one step process. The business calculator as well as the business modeler both have
                    a simplified and local storage repository for the models and possibly this could be linked to the repository if interesting.
                    The installation in (b) allows for direct testing of the front-end and the back-end functionality. This will allow for a quick link with introduction of the tool,
                    and will be complemented with course material indicating how the tool can be used. Possibly here the link to an SaaS RSS instance could be made.
                    The installation in (c) is aimed at academic usage (FRAND or free licensing) and commercial offers of the tool with a local installation of the binaries (speed and privacy).
                    The recipe and integration testing will help in a quick and effortless installation here.



best regards,
Koen

Dear Markus, all,


I was not able to attend the conference call yesterday as I was traveling for the FTTH Council,
where I am currently presenting the business calculator GE work and mentioning at the same time our work in the full BEMES project.
We will of course make a third package containing the linked business calculator and business modeler GE's,
to be able to install as a single package.

When and where do we have to deliver these packages?


best regards,
Koen

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
