Description
Hi Thierry,
we have a list of questions which we need to sort out which goes where. I would say this ticket is kind of an epic/story which needs to be split into differen directions.
General questions
- How to use FiWARE as a CDN ?
- How to test Fiware without FiwareLab ? Can we use DevOps somehow?
- GE questions *
- We are looking for a soultion similar to AMS CloudFront, ie. we would like to distribute requests to different edge server. Is it possible in FiWareLab? Is Cloude Edge a proper tool for that?
- Wirecloud (bug) ObjectStorage API listContainer() generates bad request URL (without '/' character at the end),
so it is impossible to use it. - What is the workflow with WireCloud Mashup GE (from writing widgets, through testing to delivering ready app to enduser).
Lab questions
- JobScheduler - is it avaiable on FiwareLab? Example use, image?
- Most of the time FiwareLab instances is not available. We got such logs:
Waiting for network configuration...
Waiting up to 60 more seconds for network configuration...
Booting system without full network configuration... - how to monitor statistics for specific VM ?
- Object Storage how to monitor upload/download progress ?
- FiWareLab/Mashup not available (or very slowly loading).
- How we can connect two routers in different localisation?
Questions Peter can probably answer himself - please confirm
- How we can create/manage user accounts? Is Identity Management - KeyRock GE good for this? (=> yes)
- How to configure computing node? (=> Lannion has got a manual; trial and error with all other nodes, Spain should me easiest but ran out of resources, so this answer might be not very helpful)
- When will be avaiable portal with fiwarelab statistics? -> I am planning to setup a screencast myself over existing services, but is there any official plan regarding this?
1-FIWARE is not a CDN, it is a platform with a collection of enablers and a sandbox (FIWARE Lab) which is not planned to host Terabytes of content
2-To test FIWARE without FIWARE Lab, you can install a large majority of Generic Enablers in your own environment. You have Installation Guide per GE providing prerequisits for the installation. Just keep in mine that we have designed FIWARE to provide API "as a Service" so that we use 1 VM per GE
3- Could you provide more details on "ditribute requests to different servers"? Cloud Edge is a design to integrate an external router like a part of the cloud (with compute and storage capabilities) so they are not directly sevrers at the edge of the network which are autonomous. What are the request you expect to distribute? (Maybe part of the solution could be the FIWARE IoT Gateway but a call seems required to clarify what is expected). This is also to clarify the concern to connect 2 routers in different localisations.
4-For Object Storage and Wirecloud, submit the bugs directly on Github or fiware-tech-help mailing list. Your tickets will be push directly to developers (fiware-tech-help@lists.fi-ware.org)
