Overview
As an integrating/translational platform, caIntegrator depends on service-level or API interfaces for several other applications in the caBIG suite of tools. Many of these applications have ongoing development and deploy multiple releases each year. In order to better plan for potential breakage or retest necessary in caIntegrator, the team undertook an analysis of these dependencies and the planned release schedules for each. This document highlights dependencies and serves as a place to discuss any breakage to caIntegrator and to schedule this into an iteration.
Application Dependencies
The following applications are used by caIntegrator and require some sort of dependency management. This table will track upcoming releases and any known changes or retest required for these releases. This work can then be scheduled into an upcoming caIntegrator iteration.
Application / Service | Version | Version | Next | Projected | Interface Summary / Needed caIntegrator Changes Planned Iteration | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
caArray | 2.4 | 2.5 | 2.5 | 7/2012 | Use Java RMI-based "external model" API | TBD | |
NBIA | 4.4 | 5.0 5.0 | TBD | 10/31/10 | Use caGrid data service for CQL queries and caGrid grid file transfer service. | ||
AIM | 1.5 | 1.5 | TBD | TBD | The AIM 3.0 | 1/31/11 | Use caGrid data service for CQL queries. Custom serialization/deserialization client used. 3.0 will introduce new data model (better mapping of allowable values for annotations) and will require updates to client jar as well as changes to how Image Annotations are used. TBD API deprecates the caGrid interface and instead supports only a RESTful interface described here. The API also introduces a new data model. caIntegrator will require integration implementation changes in a future release to support this new API |
GenePattern | 3.2.1 | 3.2.1 | 3.2.3 | TBD | TBD | caGrid analytical service used for genomic algorithms | TBD |
caDNAcopy | caDNAcopy 1.2 | caDNAcopy 1.2 | XX TBD | TBD | caGrid anaytical service for caDNAcopy used for copy number data during study deployment. Deployed as part of Bioconductor. We are examining non-functional changes to improve performance (multi-threading) and logging. | ||
caBio | 4.3 | XX 4.3 | MAservice 1.0 | TBD | REST API used for keyword or pathway based gene search | ||
caDSR | 4.3 | 4.3 | TBD | TBD | NCI Vocabulary Service | ||
UPT | 4.2 | 4.2.3 | TBD | 2/2012 | User Authentication and Authorization management. | ||
caGrid | 1.2 | 1.4 | TBD | TBD | core caGrid component |
