COSMOS Use Cases

Overview
The purpose of this page is to articulate the function that COSMOS will provide for M2. While enhancement requests are typically created, they tend to be very fine grained or very macro. We intend to use this page to describe from the user's point of view how they can interact with COSMOS.
We would like to be able to tie back the work we are doing to a specific use case. Therefore, we will add a link to the Use Case as a comment in the enhancement request.
These use cases typically span more than one COSMOS component. Therefore, we've come up with three "categories".
COSMOS Supported Use Cases for M2
- Use case actors
- End-to-End use cases (out of date-->needs to be updated)
The existing links are, in many cases quite old. Now that we have a tangible release plan, the purpose of this page is to:
- Consolidate all the existing links related to use cases onto a single page
- Sunset all of the old wiki pages
- Consolidate the use case information for M2 onto this page
- Associate enhancement requests with Use Cases. Note: It may be difficult to retroactively add the enhancements to the use cases. However, as we open new enhancements, we should map them back to a use case in this document
- Provide a blueprint for the system verification tests
Federation
Related components/technologies/standards:
- CMDBf
- MDR
The following document outlines COSMOS commitment to the CMDBf standard: Leveraging CMDBf
Use Case: Registering an MDR with the COSMOS framework
Description: This use case describes the ability of adopters to register an internal data store as an MDR. The use case will elaborate COSMOS capabilities that will make registration, service implementation, and discovery of the MDR easier.
- An MDR can choose to provide an implementation of a CMDBf query service. COSMOS helps adopters by providing common libraries that makes service implementation easier
Enhancements: 200222, 204959, 208584 - After a service implementation, an adopter can register the data store with COSMOS data broker.
Enhancements: - Adopters can choose to provide customized visualizations/reports or use existing COSMOS views.
Enhancements: 206771, 208603, 208595, 211093

- Performance Data
- Event Consuming, WS-N, (WEF)
Use Cases:
- COSMOS internal logging use cases
- Data collection and server use cases (Needs to be updated or removed--no content here now!)
- Monitoring User Interface use cases (Only has one use case--should be refactored)
- Plug and Manage (needs to be updated to reflect wsdm notification receipt and updating MDR)
Management
Related components/technologies/standards:
- CMDBf Administration
- SNMP (MIB2RDML??)
- WSDM Tooling
- WSDM Annotations

- SML
Use Cases:
- Resource Modeling use cases
- Build to Manage use cases (Needs to be cleaned up)
