[jsdl-wg] JSDL extension for SOA-type jobs

[Gorkin, Leonid (IT)]

Hi All,

 

Are there any plans to extend JSDL to support SOA-type jobs? I know this
is not a part of the standard right now, and Microsoft added their own
extension in Windows HPC 2008. With this extension, JSDL file looks
something like

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<jsdl:JobDefinition
      xmlns:jsdl="http://schemas.ggf.org/jsdl/2005/11/jsdl"
      xmlns:soa="http://schemas.microsoft.com/HPCS2008/hpcbp/soa"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
   
   <jsdl:JobDescription>
      <jsdl:JobIdentification>
         <jsdl:JobName>SOA Echo</jsdl:JobName>
         <jsdl:JobProject>HPCBP Project</jsdl:JobProject>
      </jsdl:JobIdentification>
      <jsdl:Application>
         <soa:HPCS2008SOAJob ServiceName="CcpEchoSvc"
                          AllocationShrinkLoadRatioThreshold="75"
                          AllocationGrowLoadRatioThreshold="125"
                          ServiceStatUpdateInterval="30000"
                          ClientConnectionTimeout="30000"
                          ClientIdleTimeout="30000"
                          SessionIdleTimeout="1000">
            <soa:JobPriority>Normal</soa:JobPriority>
            <soa:Project>SOA Test Project</soa:Project>
            <soa:Runtime>100</soa:Runtime>
            <soa:ServiceJobName>SOA Test Job</soa:ServiceJobName>
            <soa:ShareSession>false</soa:ShareSession>
         </soa:HPCS2008SOAJob>  
      </jsdl:Application>
      <jsdl:Resources>
                    <!-- .... removed .... -->
      </jsdl:Resources>
   </jsdl:JobDescription>
</jsdl:JobDefinition>

 

So if there are plans to support something like this in JSDL/Basic
Profile, is there any guidance on when approximately it will be
available? I am researching cross-vendor API for various grid providers,
and the absence of SOA support is a big issue now. Any information on
this is greatly appreciated.

 

Best regards,
Leonid
