The SDP Integration prototype is a project to develop a lightweight prototype of the major components of the SDP system. The focus of this work is to:
- provide verification, testing and analysis of the SDP architecture,
- test external and internally facing SDP software interfaces,
- provide limited tests of horizontal scaling on a representative SDP hardware prototype, the SDP performance prototype platform (P3) also known as ALaSKA.
The code in this repository is designed to provide a set of loosely coupled services, example workflows and pipelines, and supporting libraries. These are intended to be independently testable but also capable of being combined as part of a larger deployment for testing various combination of the SDP software components.
This repository also consists of a number of emulators which are used to provide synthetic data to mock or test various interfaces.
The main SIP code can be found in the sip directory and is organised
according to a structure inspired by the SDP high-level architecture
module view. Emulator code can be found in the emulators directory.
As, by design, code folders in this repository are loosely coupled most will
contain a README.md describing their function and how they can be run
and tested. In fact, while folders are grouped into this single repository for
convenience, the majority of sub-directories in this repository can be equally
thought of as standalone sub-repositories.
In order to test collections of SIP code which providing various test
deployments scripts facilitating this can be found in the deploy directory
and at higher levels in the code tree.
