Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services
A brief outline

Note: Globus version 5 does not include any GT4 web service components and this section may be less important in the future.

7-2.2
Stateful GT 4 Grid ServicesReview
• “Pure” Web services are stateless.
• Stateful web services required for Grid computing.
• WSRF provides stateful web services by having a Web service as a front-end to a stateful “resource.”
![Page 3: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
7-2.3
GT 4 services
• Key aspect is separation of (Web) service and a resource – conceptually if not actually.
• Provides ability to have “state” without altering the statelessness of Web service.
![Page 4: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Resource properties
Client
Web Service Resource Framework(WSRF)
Holds information retained between accesses.

Resource properties
• Name given to data items in the resource
• Can consist of:– Data values about current state of service (results of
calculations etc.)
– Metadata: Information about data
– Information about whole resource: Termination time, etc.

![Page 6: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
7-2.6
Combining Service Code and Resource
• Simplest arrangement is to have both the service code and resource code were held in a single file.
• Ideally, we would like to have multiple resources for a Web service
• Having one file not the preferred way except for simple service examples.
![Page 7: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
7-2.7
Separate Resource
More generally, resource is a (stateful) class.
End Point Reference (EPR) is an XML document that has URL of service and possibly a resource identification (key)
Classes provided for different arrangements:
ReflectionResourceProperty class can be used when service code and resource in one file.

7-2.8
Resource Home
• Resources are managed by Resource Home's
• Provides resource management functions– for adding resources– for removing resources

Multiple Resources
Suppose there are multiple resources that a service might interact with:
Client Web Service
Resources
![Page 15: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
7-2.15
Creating ResourcesWS-Resource Factory Pattern
Traditional object-oriented approach to creating resources is to use a “factory” service:
Factory service responsible for creating instances of resources.
Each resource assigned a unique “key”, which together with service URI identifies WS-resource pair. (Endpoint Reference)
![Page 16: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

7-2.19
Question
Q: Why would one want to have multiple resources for a Web service?
![Page 20: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
7-2.20
Lifecycle Management
Lifecycle mechanisms available in WSRF.
GT4 provides mechanisms to specify when a resource is automatically destroyed.
•Immediately by invoking destroy operation through a Web service
• Scheduled some time in the future
• Leased-based lifecycle management
![Page 21: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
7-2.21
Immediate DestructionCommand line:
globus-wsrf-destroy -e EPR1234.epr
Destruction can be requested through a Web service by a client:
math.destroy(new Destroy());
Notice - factory responsible for creating resource, but service instance destroys it.
File containing EPR of resource
![Page 22: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
7-2.22
Scheduled Termination Time
Termination time exposed as a resource property.
Can be set with GT4 command:
wsrf-set-termination-time
Example
wsrf-set-termination-time -e EPR1234.epr 100
File containing EPR of resource
Termination time in seconds
![Page 23: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
7-2.23
Question
Q: Why would one want to have a termination time set for a resource?
![Page 24: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
7-2.24
Lease-based Lifetime
• In lease-based model, resources must be kept alive by interested parties, otherwise resource dies.
• A lifetime for a service is set after which the service is destroyed.
• Interested parties (clients) must renew the lease (reset the termination time) or it will be destroyed.
• Clean up without having to use a destroy operation explicitly.
![Page 25: 7-2.1 Additional Features of WSRF/GT4 Services A brief outline © 2011 B. Wilkinson/Clayton Ferner. Fall 2011 Grid computing course. Modification date:](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d365503460f94a0e3ce/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
7-2.25
Notifications
Notifying clients when something interesting happens.
Example might be when a resource property reaches a certain value
Could use polling but this is very inefficient.
WS-notification defines mechanisms.

7-2.26
Resource property changes
• Examples:
– Changes to resource property values.– Methods added– Methods removed– Resources destroyed

7-2.27
Subscribe for notifications
• Need client to “subscribe” to receive notifications.
• Subscriptions are for a particular topic.
• Resource implemented with GT 4 classes that provide for automatic notifications whenever property changes.

Querying Index Servicewsrf-query
Browse index service with the GT4 command:
wsrf-query
which will list resource properties in an XML format.

Example
wsrf-query –s http://localhost:8080/wsrf/services/
DefaultIndexService '/*'
which will list resource properties in an XML format.
Result might be:
<ns1:MyServiceResourceProperties xmlns:ns1= “...”>
<ns1:data>234</ns1:data></ns1:MyServiceResourceProperties>

An index service can be browsed with the GT4 command such as:
wsrf-query –s \http://localhost:8080/wsrf/services/DefaultIndexService '/*'
which will list all the resource properties and their values in an XML format, where index service located at http://localhost:8080/wsrf/services/DefaultIndexService.
XPath expressions can be used to select specific resource properties.

7-2.42
Resource Discovery
• The local and community index services can be searched for a particular resource property.
• Since Resources properties are XML, can use “XPath” queries for searching and retrieval.

7-2.43
XML Path Language (XPath)
• W3C recommendation, 1999
• A query language for search XML documents.
• Queries formed by identifying a route to the desired data.
• For details: http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath

MDS4 Trigger Service
• Subscribes to a set of resource properties
• Evaluate that data against a set of pre-configured conditions (triggers)
• When a condition matches, action occurs
– Email is sent to pre-defined address
– Website updated
