still waiting for audit component (performs annual check on all identities)
web app for registering identities all set
expecting documentation at rollout
Kian-Tat Lim : there are two parts, right? Github linkage
All 2018 acquisitions are complete
2nd QServ master hardware handed over a week or two ago
Fritz Mueller & Igor Gaponenko : no problems with the node so far, have already installed QServ and tested that the 2nd node successfully functions as a master. Everything seems to be configured correctly.
Current version of QServ doesn't support actually running multiple masters simultaneously. Primarily a matter of configuration.
The plan is to run multiple masters as a load-sharing cluster, not just as a hot spare. Working out the details of how to manage any shared state, such as query history.
2019 acquisition list is now in Wil O'Mullane's hands; some cost-limitation exercises are in progress. Fritz Mueller : it may not be possible to do a full refresh of the PDAC QServ cluster. Will provide Wil O'Mullane the needed details later today.
Google proof-of-concept work (Vaikunth Thukral) progressing well. Part of the WISE dataset on QServ in Google Cloud. Their "quasi-local" storage seems to be working quite well. Would like Gregory Dubois-Felsmann to do some behavior/performance evaluation.
Unknown User (cbanek)'s CADC TAP service evaluation: up and running, will demo at workshop, apparently have Gaia data loaded. Concerns about how we would integrate LSST A&A, handle multiple database backends. Their original authorization was based on X.509, which we can't directly adopt.
WebDAV situation: blocked by A&A concerns. Could set up a standard Apache WebDAV. Discussion of the priorities. Probably not worth it, should focus on a proper A&A design.
Brian has an idea for how to set up an nginx-based WebDAV, may be easier than the xrootd approach we were previously considering.
Would like to give demos of recent JupyterLab extension work, as well as the (detection) Footprint viewer. Discussion of reclaiming a bit of the next-to-DB time in the workshop for this.
