Goals of Cooperation • ChinaGrid contributions to global grid community • Keep the advanced feature of ChinaGrid • Improve the interoperability widely for whole grid community
Experience with GT4: HAND • HAND: Highly Available dyNamic Deployment Infrastructure • ChinaGrid and Globus started sharing ideas and codes from June 2005 • Hot deploy branch now almost ready for release • CGSP 2.0 release candidates also import certain features from Globus
HAND (1) Container-Level Deployment Service-Level Deployment
Container level deployment advantages Clear workflow Service level deployment advantages Flexible management HAND (2)
More approaches to deploy Better Performance (against Tomcat) HAND (3)
HAND (4) • Achievement • A release candidate for GT 4.2 • A co-authored paper submitted to HPDC’06 • A excellent cooperation and communication channel • Win-win experience on international cooperation
CGSP Container Contribute to Globus Toolkit 4.2
Experience with GT4:Execution Management • Early experience to enhance the BPEL (ActiveBPEL) to WSRF-compatible • Support for JSDL specification • Support multiple schedule in a common framework • WSRF compatible Web service • Hyper Services (Virtual Service) • Composite Services • Legacy application encapsulated in GRS

GT GSI is composed of a set of command-line tools to manage certificates, and a set of Java classes to easily integrate security into our web services. GSI offers programmers the following features Transport-level and message-level security Authentication through X.509 digital certificates Several authorization schemes Credential delegation and single sign-on Different levels of security: container, service, and resource CGSP User certificate at Portal level Username-passwd & Credential (pkcs12) Sys-service & Gen-service Job is executed by cgsp-module with user info including username,group and domain info) Job security is guaranteed by message-level security Support the composite job security cgsp-ac-config.xml Support dynamic security resource properties SecurityContextService SecurityTokenCenter FeedbackService Experience with GT4: Security
Future Works • High dynamicity and autonomy containers • CDDLM, WSDM, WS-ReliableMessage • Complicated deployment policies and infrastructure • WS-Agreement, BPEL4Deployment • ActiveBPEL engine running on GT4 • Interoperable middleware or agents • GRS and GRAM • Information Center and MDS4 • Security
