NoSQL implementation for Airavata Registry
------------------------------------------
Key: AIRAVATA-341
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-341
Project: Airavata
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Marlon Pierce
Assignee: Marlon Pierce
Priority: Minor
Airavata's Registry is used to store and retrieve services and workflows. The
Registry is currently very lightweight with an implementation based on Apache
Jackrabbit. This task is to develop a more powerful registry capable of
handling a wider variety of use cases and science gateway metadata. Issues
include development of JSON metadata models for different use cases,
development and evaluation of metadata search capabilities (both expressiveness
and performance), and development and evaluation of access policies for the
metadata. The latter may involve integration with Apache Rave as an OpenSocial
engine for defining groups and filtering requests.
Evaluating the capabilities of multiple NoSQL databases will be an important
component of this task. Candidate technologies from Apache include Cassandra
and CouchDB, but appropriately licensed non-Apache projects such as MongoDB
will also be evaluated.
Sample use case scenarios will include computational chemistry, material
science, astronomy, and earth science.
