gLite Information System Requirements
Description
site-level BDII -> top-level BDII
One-way reliable data transfer between 400 producers and 20 consumers for the Information System synchronization.
Client types
Producers
Producers produces synchronization differences. They are WAN distributed.
Consumers
Consumers consume synchronization differences. They are WAN distributed.
Destination types
For a give destination type:
- instances number: 400
- messages content: LDIF synchronization information
- messages size: 0 to 100K
- format of the messages body: LDIF
- messages lifetime: 2 minutes
- maximum latency: <2 minutes
- permanent connected producers and consumers
- security requirements: producers should be verified
For a given destination instance:
- 1 producer, 1 message every 2 minutes
- 20 consumers, 20 messages every 2 minutes
For a given destination type:
- 400 producers, 400 messages every 2 minutes, <10 messages per second
- 20 consumers, 20*800 messages every 2 minutes, < 100 messages per second
Programming languages
Python if the current Information System is extended, unknown otherwise.
