Project Description

Agile OODT
Project resources

Agile OODT is the core of the next-generation OODT package. It provides a number of central features that comprise the OODT, including the following:

  • Profile service. The profile service handles queries for metadata and provides descriptions of matching resources called profiles. As such, it forms the data discovery component of OODT.
  • Product service. The product service handles requests for data and also converts data from proprietary formats into open Internet-standard formats. It forms the data retrieval component of OODT.
  • Web Grid.  The Web Grid system is the container for instances of the profile and product services and enables remote administration and upgrading of OODT software components.
  • Query expression. With the responsibility for understanding both metadata and data queries, the query expression component captures user desiderata in a system-agnostic way.

In addition, Agile OODT provides utilities for XML parsing and XML document manipulation (since the inter-component communication for OODT is based on XML).
