[Fiware-iot] [GE splitting]

Dear Thierry, Tobias,

My only concern with the "clean slate" solution that Tobias is proposing is that we will lost traceability. I mean, it would not be possible to trace a particular feature from the new IoT Broker or ConfigManager GE to the corresponding feature in the old Thing Management GE. In fact, if we do the "clean slate", we should starting over re-introducing all the features of the Thing Management GE to one of the new GEs (otherwise, we would have a big "gap" in the documented functionality of the new GEs, a gap equivalent exactly equal to the functionality that the old Thing Management GE had)... which will be "de facto" the same renaming operation I was proposing.

I'm ok with not using ThingManagement in the name. Good point.

Best regards,

For this point (tracker items) I am going to ask Juanjo this morning (WPL/WPA meeting) when the dedicated tracker system per GE will be put in place. If it happens soon it could be the solution to create the new items only once.

Hi Fermin,

About the Tracker items:
I am not sure if we should rename them. Maybe another approach would be to close them all and mention that there are now new tracker items for the new GEs. Then every one of us can create new tracker items for his GE.

Also, I would not keep "ThingsManagement" in the name. I did it in the wiki, but this is only for better keeping track of the splitting process. After it is finished and moved to the public wiki, I would recommend to remove the "ThingsManagement." part.

Best regards
Tobias

Dear Tobias,

In order to ease the "Tracker items" task, I've taken an snapshoot of the trac (attached). For each one of the currently existing issues, we should define a new name, using the following rule:

X.IoT.Backend.ThingsManagement.Y -> X.IoT.Backend.ThingsManagement.IoTBroker.Y or X.IoT.Backend.ThingsManagement.ConfigMan.Y

Tobias, could you please do a first pass to the attached Excel completing the new_name column for the issues related with IoT Broker, please? I'm not sure which they are...

In addition, if we are splitting the Thing Management GE into two GEs (IoT Broker and ConfMan) we should define where Discovery Engine and Geo-Discover components are located. Considering the internal structure (see attachment) I tend to think that they would belong to ConfMan, but I would like to confirm if the other partners in Thing Managament GE (NEC and USurrey) think the same.

Best regards,

PD. I've created a backlog entry (workitem) for the wiki and trac work on splitting: FIWARE.WorkItem.IoT.Backend.ThingsManagement.Splitting<https://forge.fi-ware.eu/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3250&group_id=11&atid=193> . It should be assigned to both TID and NEC (as we are doing this splitting), but given that AFAIK our trac doesn't allow assign a ticket to two different people, asignee is set to "Nobody".

Dear Tobias,

I think is a good approach. I will take care of the ConfMan pages.

Dear all,

We are about to start implementing the split between the Things Management GE and the Configuration Management GE. What we have done up to now is to create an overview of the places where there are changes that need to be done:
https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fi-ware-private/index.php/Things_Management_GE_splitting_page

The page also contains placeholders for the modified pages.

The question now is how much of the old Things Management GE to leave in these pages.
What we would propose is to bring everything into a status which simulates that the TM GE has never existed, and only mention at certain places that the TM GE now is actually two GEs. Although this might create some confusion, the alternative would be to have some things described in terms of the old GE and other things described in terms of the new GE - where the confusion would be considerably greater, I think.

In particular.

-          All tracker items become associated to one of the new GEs, or both

-          All Things Management GE features/epics/... become features of one of the new GEs, or of both

-          In the technical roadmap the release 1 could stay like it is, but the linked features are changed to the new features.

-          In the catalogue the old TM GE will stay at least until the 2nd release, but the documentation links need to be updated.

Please let me know your opinion.

Best regards
Tobias
