Bhathiya Jayasekara commented on AIRAVATA-338:
----------------------------------------------
Hi,
I'm willing to take this project as my GSoC 2012 project. I have a rough idea
about the requirement except for one thing. (I will ask specific questions
about it, if any, while I'm proceeding.) The problem currently I have is about
the data structure which is mentioned at last. Can I have some clarification on
that part? For example, at where it is used, what the current data structure
is, what are the data stored in it etc.
Thank you.

> Key: AIRAVATA-338
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-338
> Project: Airavata
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Registry API
> Affects Versions: 0.4-INCUBATING
> Reporter: Suresh Marru
> Assignee: Lahiru Gunathilake
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: gsoc2012, mentor

> Implement the Sling support for Apache Airavata, currently Airavata has an
> API to store/retrieve data from Jackrabbit, but its not scalable when to
> handle large amount of data because of keeping the session in the client
> side. Sling supports accessing Jackrabbit in REST full way. So we need to
> come up with another API which looks like the current API but uses jackrabbit
> through Sling Interface. The integration will require testing to ensure
> Airavata tutorials will work as is out of the box. The current data
> structures have limitations, so its strongly advisable to come up with
> hierarchical tree structure to store different data categories. Airavata
> community is very knowledgable on the requirements and will provide good
> inputs.
> User community & Impact of the software: Airavata is primarily targeted to
> build science gateways using computational resources from various
> disciplines. The initial targeted set of gateways include projects supporting
> research and education in chemistry, life sciences, biophysics, environmental
> sciences, geosciences astronomy and nuclear physics. The goal of airavata is
> to enhance productivity of these gateways to utilize cyberinfrastructure of
> resources (e.g., local lab resources, the Extreme Science and Engineering
> Discovery Environment (XSEDE), the Open Science Grid (OSG), University
> Clusters, Academic and Commercial Computational Clouds like FutureGrid &
> Amazon EC2). By using open community based software components and services
> like Airavata, gateways will be able to focus on providing additional
> scientific capabilities and to expanding the number of supported users. The
> capabilities of these gateways will offer clear benefits to society.
