[Fiware-data] Fwd: *** IMPORTANT TO BE READ *** How to populate the catalogue!!!

Dear all,

While Carlos is on holidays I will take up his role at least in what concerns distributing information of general interest for the WP.

Please see the attached message. The idea is that:

* Data has delivered D6.2, D6.3 and D6.4 (software + manuals)
* Data has to deliver D10.2 (Testbed).  This involves each GE owner that delivers in R1.
Part of the delivery is updating the catalogue (http://fi-ware.cloud.labs.ericsson.net/) to properly record the availability of the GE to the Use Case Projects. We need this to accept the contribution from the GE to deliverable D10.2 and the testbed team will verify it and will complain if it is not available when you deliver.

This implies providing the details of this GE instance on the instances tab of the Catalogue (IPs, URLs...). This is public so you do not provide users/passwords here!
Please read the instructions to deliver and populate the catalogue properly, the email from Davide is clear and also the attached document provides good guidance.

As you see, there are people to resolve your doubts about the catalogue (I think that all is crystal clear but you never know). The people from Engineeer  leave today on holidays but Marika and Mattias are going to be available.

Cheers,

Miguel

Dear All,
sorry if the mail is a bit long but I think it is extremely necessary after the conference call we had yesterday and the current status of the catalogue.

The first clarification is that in our view (catalogue and testbed), these are the existing relationships:
- 1 Generic Enabler Open Specification corresponds to 1..N Generic Enabler implementations.
- 1 Generic Enabler implementation can have 1...N Generic Enabler Instance\s.
(The reason for the last relationship is that in the future, according to the DoW, we assume the possibility to have not only the FI-WARE Testbed but different FI-WARE Instances. For this reason we assume that for 1 Generic Enabler implementation there could be different endpoints (instances) on different FI-WARE Instances).

The second clarification is that the FI-WARE Catalogue is the FI-WARE Generic Enablers Implementations Catalogue (we will change the name accordingly and explain this in the first page as an introduction for the potential users). This means that each entry into the catalogue should represent an implementation (complete or partial) of a Generic Enable Open specification and this MUST be evident!!!

The third clarification concerns how to populate the different pages arranged for each Generic Enabler Implementation: Overview - Instances - Download - Documentation. (For the “Instances” label we will also try to find a more self explanatory alternative).

Overview: this page should explain what you are offering and mainly what GE Open Specification you are implementing, detailing if you are implementing all the specification or only part of it and, if possible an overview of the API.  (see attached file for template)

To note: Where and when it makes sense you should also include links to wiki pages (e.g., when referring to the Open Specifications, it should be the link to the wiki page where the specifications are published).

Instances: this is a very simple page where it should be specified at least one URL of the endpoint where requests to operations of the RESTFul API can be directed in order to interact with the GE. (One endpoint as at the moment there is only the FI-WARE Testbed. Hopefully in the next future we will have more endpoints if there will be more FI-WARE Instances). For this endpoint you have the opportunity to provide any additional information you may consider helpful (e.g. registration required, legal constraints, terms of use, etc.).

In this page it is also possible to add links to admin pages or user interface pages related to the specific GE instance (e.g., Cloud Portal)
IMPORTANT NOTE:  At this time we don't know, but we may lead to multiple instances of the same GE implementation deployed on the FI-WARE Testbed, each serving a concrete UC project (because the GE implementation happens not to be multi-tenant, or there are conditions that recommend so). If that it is the case, the information of each of those instances should be listed here, clear enough as to allow each UC project to find out what instance to use or ask for a specific one. (see attached file for template)

Download: this page is to add any client, library, driver, stub or whatever necessary to be installed locally to interact with the GE endpoint. In addition to this, it will be possible to add the source code or binaries (whatever is applicable) of the GE implementation of those GEs that are public plus any other file or necessary document (release notes, license and terms of use, etc.)  (see attached file for template)

Documentation: any information necessary for the developer to use the endpoint and the sw listed in the download page (e.g code examples, how to use, tricks and tips, etc.). This page should include at least the Users' and Programmers' Guide that has been produced for the release.  (see attached file for template)

It is important to note that the GEs that will not comply with the rules above will not be published in the catalogue (or unpublished for those already published) and therefore not be made accessible to UC projects. We pretend that the FI-WARE Generic Enablers Implementations Catalogue becomes the single, user-friendly, mean through which the UC projects will get all the information they need to start using the GE implementations available at the FI-WARE Testbed.

In this respect, we expect that the catalogue is populated and\or updated in parallel with the deployment of the GE instance in the FI-WARE Testbed.

Please do not hesitate to ask for additional clarifications and send us comments and suggestions to improve.

Thanks a lot for your cooperation and best regards,

Matteo, Davide Stefano and Juanjo
