[UR-WG] Fwd: [wg-all] New document published: Usage Record - Format Recommendation [Obsoletes GFD.98]

[Andrea Cristofori]

Dear all,

As you might already know our document has reached the status of Format 
Recommendation.
I wish to thank you all for the work.
Maybe it is time to think if we want to proceed further on the work and 
maybe advance to UR2.1.
Several weeks ago I posted some thought on GPU accounting. What do you 
think?
As John G. also asked: is there any implementation already available 
that uses UR2.0? Or plan to have it implemented?

Cheers,
Andrea

This document obsoletes #GFD.98

Abstract:
For resources to be shared, sites must be able to exchange basic accounting and usage data in a common format. This document describes a common format which enables the exchange of basic accounting and usage data from different resources. This record format is intended to facilitate the sharing of usage information, particularly in the area of the accounting of jobs, computing, memory, storage and cloud usage but with a structure that allows an easy extension to other resources. This document describes the Usage Record components both in natural language form and annotated XML.

This document does not address how these records should be used, nor does it attempt to dictate the format in which the accounting records are stored. Instead, it defines a common exchange format. Furthermore, nothing is said regarding the communication mechanisms employed to exchange the records, i.e. transport layer, framing, authentication, integrity, etc.
