Cosmos Architecture Meeting 18-Oct-07

Revision as of 12:28, 18 October 2007 by Unnamed Poltroon (Talk) (Initial discussion / requirements on security (COSMOS Design 205658))

Attendees

  • Ali Mehregani
  • Mark Weitzel
  • Bill Muldoon
  • Hubert Leuyng
  • Sheldon Leeloy
  • David Whiteman
  • Maosheng Liang
  • Jack Devine


Minutes

Update on user interface, esp. regarding boundary b/t DC and DV

  • Four new enhancements, include new broker view & MDR organization during meeting with Monica, Jack, Sheldon
  • Will also include a way to show the statistical report for non-MDR data sources. This will incorporate existing data stores
  • Generic XML viewer to facilitate MDRs that return "generic" XML
  • There will need to be some refactoring of the widgets that produce the XML binding logic (in data visualization services)
  • (Bill): Is there a relationship b/t the data manager and a view(s). This needs to be a loose coupling but could influence the programming model discussion.
    • Hubert will add this notion to the programming model discussion.

Initial discussion / requirements on security (COSMOS Design 205658)

Some initial thoughts.... we need hooks so that we can add on w/out breaking. Of course, this is a bit generic.


It's possible that each MDR (and its contained data source) will have its own security mechanism.

  • Will we have to manage credentials for each MDR?
  • Do we need to simply encrypt the pipe? What about authentication?


Muse concerned about transport security and will encrypt the pipe with SSL. Relies on WS-Security. Can allow access based on the capability of the model.

  • One approach may be to use the security credentials that comes in the ws-security header.


  • Based on the Muse implementation, the target date for this would be I9.
