Discussion items
S15 planning
- DB plans affecting SUI: ddl, restful API, metadata+db+imageCutout all integrated
- #1 feature needed by SUI team: integrated db+set of images
- also, SUI team cares which format will be supported first, ipac table format would be good
- although it is inefficient (lots of empty spaces)
- need to discuss early how to pass metadata
- would be best to have something (even if very basic) working early in the S15 cycle
- action item for IPAC team: document queries they are planning to run
Tatiana's tests of Qserv
- 2 problems reported some time ago: DM-1822 (fixed, in review), and DM-1905 (started looking into that during the meeting)
- need to discuss at DM-AHM how to improve turn around time
Async requests
- "POST /db/v0/query?type=async" and "GET /db/v0/query/status?queryId=<qId>" look reasonable
- No need to return any estimates from POST, SUI will just call periodically "explain"
- Need to add "explain" to the API page
Terminology
- need K-T for this discussion, postponing till next time
VO cutout service
- http://www.cadc-ccda.hia-iha.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/caom2ops/examples
- the CADC sources are here https://code.google.com/p/opencadc/source/browse/#git%253Fstate%253Dclosed
- IPAC team familiar, but not with details, will read up about it
- also, Serge wrote image cutout code for Ursa. Discuss all that at the DM-AHM
Next meeting
- No 11:00 am hangout next week, because of AHM

Repeating comment from last time: For asynchronous/background requests, I think POST should be used to create a resource that contains the query id in the URL (the status and result of which can then be retrieved using GET with that resource or sub-resources).
