Dear Service Composition Working Group Members,
(@Giuditta: can you
please cancel tomorrow's only Service Composition
meeting. Other future and regular slots are unchanged and remain
active).
We have to skip the visio/teams meeting of tomorrow, of the service composition working group, for unfortunate conflicts in my schedule. I was unable to resolve the collision.
This is quite unusual for me to do so, but hopefully it is not that critical at this stage since I am yet to build a "relevant" composition example to bootstrap the working group work fruitfully. I think we can use the time in between to consolidate the example and have an efficient meeting on 17/03/2022, Thursday of next week.
Meanwhile Anja kindly
sent us pointers on Self Descriptions from the Service
Characteristics working group that I am repeating below, and
that I recommend you to analyze and think about in terms of
service composition. We need also to establish a link with the
compliance and trust frameworks to embed compliance and trust in
our work.
Copied from Anja's message that we received on our mailing list:
Self Descriptions for analysis and exploitation by service composition.
- Bare Metal Service Offering: https://gitlab.com/gaia-x/gaia-x-community/gaia-x-self-descriptions/-/blob/250-write-tutorial-for-bare-metal-as-a-service-offering/documentation/sd-tutorial/bare_metal_service_offering.md (WIP)
- Virtual Compute Service Offering: https://gitlab.com/gaia-x/gaia-x-community/gaia-x-self-descriptions/-/blob/279-model-virtual-compute-service-iaas/documentation/sd-tutorial/virtual_compute_service_iaas.md (WIP)
- K8s Service Offering: https://gitlab.com/gaia-x/gaia-x-community/gaia-x-self-descriptions/-/blob/271-write-k8s-example-for-the-breakout-session/documentation/sd-tutorial/k8s-service-offering.md (WIP)
Be aware, however, just like Christoph mentioned these are not service compositions, but description frameworks. Evidently no service composition without descriptions and descriptors, without discovery/matching/recommendation mechanisms. Therefore, it is important that we take the other working groups work into account and build upon their frameworks and feedback if we identify missing elements and gaps later on when we roll out the service composition processes and workflows to build the service composition model.
I will notify you when
I have documents and examples ready on the shared space so we
can prepare the meeting of Thursday 17/03/2022 ahead of meeting
time.
Again, my apology for cancelling tomorrow's meeting, only. We will be back to normal schedule every Thursdays from 2 to 3 pm, as of next week.
BR,
Djamal Zeghlache
