Crew,

Based on the Arch meeting yesterday, here is the modified listing and (a start at the) definitions for each COSMOS component… Please update / append / correct as appropriate.

 

COSMOS Broker

Is a COSMOS component with which web services may register, and for COSMOS clients to find those web services.  Currently, there are no restrictions on the type of web services that my register themselves with the Broker.

 

Product Client

Is a product-specific API that is implemented by each product to access its data.  The Product Client “resides” within the Data Manager.

 

Data Manager

Is a component that hosts a Product Client, and handles communication with the COSMOS environment.

 

COSMOS Client

Is a component used access and visualize information from Product Data sources via Data Managers.  The Client may be an API or a UI; COSMOS ships with a sample webUI.

 

Thanks,

Jimmy Mohsin
