Resource Registry is part of gCube [[Information System]].
+
 
 +
The [[Information_System_Resource_Registry | Resource Registry]] is the core component of the gCube [[Information System]] designed to support the operation of a hybrid cloud-based infrastructure:
 +
* To capture, transmit, store, retrieve and manipulate data from any software system enabled on the infrastructure
 +
** Location and properties
 +
** Status, load, exploitation usage, and accounting data
 +
 
 +
* To provide access to information, organized to enable
 +
** Monitoring, validation, and reporting
 +
** Elasticity and pooling of resources
 +
 
 +
* To support any software system to
 +
** Discover services and infrastructure resources
 +
 
 +
The Resource Registry - core of a SOA within the complexities of a hybrid cloud-based infrastructure – must enable
 +
 
 +
* '''a set of resource management functions'''
 +
** enabling functions
 +
*** publication, discovery
 +
*** monitoring, deployment
 +
*** contextualization, security, execution
 +
** data management functions
 +
*** access, store
 +
*** index, search
 +
*** transfer, transform
 +
 
 +
* '''plus, a set of applications'''
 +
** built against those functions
 +
 
 +
* '''Resource types: abstract view over functions'''
 +
** defined by specifications
 +
** multiple implementations, over time / concurrently
 +
 
 +
* different implementations, different information
 +
** system cannot globally define them
 +
** implementations produce/consume different facets, independently
 +
 
 +
* resource semantics dynamic
 +
** no longer predefined in class hierarchies
 +
** implicitly captured by current facets
 +
** changes over time / across “similar” resources

* their belonging to one or more application domain (i.e. Context) that make up the Infrastructure. In other words, the Resource Registry have to manage the Contexts (allowing to create hierarchy beetween them) and associate the entities and relations to one or more of the Contexts as requested by the different clients.

The Resource registry is also responsible to notify any update or creation of any entity or relation to [[Information System Subscription Notification Service]].

Resource Registry is capable of serving different applications domains (i.e. Context). To achieve this goal, the Resource Registry provides capabilities to manage Contexts (the contexts are hierarchical) and associate the entities and relations to one or more of the Contexts as requested by the different clients.

=== Resource Registry Client ===
+
To reach its goals Resource Registry offers 5 port types:
 +
* [[Resource Registry_Service - Context Management|Context Management]] : it manages hierarchical contexts;
 +
* [[Resource Registry Service - Type Management|Type Management]] : it manages the definition of entities and relations types and their schema;
 +
* [[Resource Registry Service - Instances Management|Instances Management]] : it manages entities and relations instances;
 +
* [[Resource Registry Service - Instances Sharing Management|Instances Sharing Management]] : it manages instances sharing across different contexts;
 +
* [[Resource Registry Service - Query Templates Management|Query Templates Management]] : it manages query templates;
 +
* [[Resource Registry Service - Query & Access|Query & Access]] : it supports the discovery of instances through access patterns and queries.
  
Resource Registry Client is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with [[#Query_&_Access|Query & Access]] port type.
+
Every Port type is exposed as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer REST] API.
The library hide all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and result.
+
By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of json object
+
  
== Interact with Resource Registry ==
+
Every REST API is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON JSON] based. In other words, any content of an HTTP request is represented in JSON.
  
=== Context Management ===
+
=== Resource Registry Context Client ===
  
It is responsible for managing [[Facet_Based_Resource_Model#Context| Context]] belonging to the same Application Domain.
+
Resource Registry Schema is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with [[Resource Registry Service - Context Management|Context Management]].
 +
The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results.
 +
By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.
  
Security configuration based on [[Authorization Framework]] make this port type accessible only from [[Information System Resource Manager|Resource Manager]]. In other words no others client is allowed to manage [[Facet_Based_Resource_Model#Context| Context]] rather than [[Information System Resource Manager|Resource Manager]].
+
To use the Java library to interact with Context Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file.
  
[[Facet_Based_Resource_Model#Context|Context]] requirements:
+
<source lang="xml">
* No predefined number of levels.
+
<dependency>
* Possibility to change the name of the Context with no impact for any component.
+
<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>
* Possibility to move a [[Facet_Based_Resource_Model#Context| Context]] from a parent [[Facet_Based_Resource_Model#Context| Context]] to another.

Resource Registry Publisher is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with [[Resource Registry Service - Instances Management | Instances Management]] and [[Resource Registry Service - Instances Sharing Management | Instances Sharing Management]].
 +
The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results.
 +
By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.
  
Apart the REST API this port type can be used also by using a Java client
+
To use the Java library to interact with Context Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file.
  
<pre>
+
<source lang="xml">
 
<dependency>
 
<dependency>
 
<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>

+
<version>[4.0.0,5.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
</dependency>
+
<dependency>
</pre>
+
</source>
  
To use the client you need first get a ''resourceRegistryPublisher'' instance.
 
By using create method the library automatically query the Information System to get the correct endpoint for the current context.

The Resource Registry is the core component of the gCube Information System designed to support the operation of a hybrid cloud-based infrastructure:

  • To capture, transmit, store, retrieve and manipulate data from any software system enabled on the infrastructure
    • Location and properties
    • Status, load, exploitation usage, and accounting data
  • To provide access to information, organized to enable
    • Monitoring, validation, and reporting
    • Elasticity and pooling of resources
  • To support any software system to
    • Discover services and infrastructure resources

The Resource Registry - core of a SOA within the complexities of a hybrid cloud-based infrastructure – must enable

  • a set of resource management functions
    • enabling functions
      • publication, discovery
      • monitoring, deployment
      • contextualization, security, execution
    • data management functions
      • access, store
      • index, search
      • transfer, transform
  • plus, a set of applications
    • built against those functions
  • Resource types: abstract view over functions
    • defined by specifications
    • multiple implementations, over time / concurrently
  • different implementations, different information
    • system cannot globally define them
    • implementations produce/consume different facets, independently
  • resource semantics dynamic
    • no longer predefined in class hierarchies
    • implicitly captured by current facets
    • changes over time / across “similar” resources

Architecture

The constituent components are:

Resource Registry Service

Resource Registry Service is the key component of the Information System. It is a web service running on SmartGears responsible for storing information regarding the Infrastructure, in particular, the global and partial view of:

  • the resources (e.g. computing, storage, services, software, datasets);
  • their current status (e.g. up and running, available);
  • their relationships with other resources.
  • the policies governing their exploitation.

Resource Registry is developed only by using the concepts defined in the IS Model and it provides the capabilities to enrich its knowledge by creating new types of entities and relations and their schemas.

Resource Registry is capable of serving different applications domains (i.e. Context). To achieve this goal, the Resource Registry provides capabilities to manage Contexts (the contexts are hierarchical) and associate the entities and relations to one or more of the Contexts as requested by the different clients.

The Resource registry is also responsible for notifying any update or creation of any entity or relation to Information System Subscription Notification Service.

Maven coordinates are:

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId>
	<artifactId>resource-registry</artifactId>
	<version>[4.0.0,5.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version>
<dependency>


To reach its goals Resource Registry offers 5 port types:

Every Port type is exposed as REST API.

Every REST API is JSON based. In other words, any content of an HTTP request is represented in JSON.

Resource Registry Context Client

Resource Registry Schema is a java library providing RPC facilities to interact with Context Management. The library hides all the complexity of marshalling and unmarshalling of requests and results. By using this library any client is able to manage java classes instead of JSON objects.

To use the Java library to interact with Context Collection declare the following dependency in your pom.xml file.
