See eduTEAMS Discovery documentation pages: Discovery ServiceEarlier discussion from Licia: "Dear all,
Last week in Milan I had a chat with Slavek about CESNET discovery
service. We agreed that we it would make more sense to look at a
discovery service in the context of eduGAIN.
Slavek and I agreed that the current pilot with CESNET service was not
really advertised so it's difficult to gather inputs on the satisfaction
of the services that used it. In agreement with Marina, we will fund
another pilot with CESNET discovery with defined goals where we will ask
for inputs and/or requests for new features. The pilot will have a
limited duration of about 6 months. The pilot, in agreement with Niels,
should go under the incubator and after the defined period we should
assess the usability and satisfaction and see which features should be
implemented. We have planned a similar pilot also for RA21.
I will ping Slavek privately to define further details." |

The current eduTEAMS Discovery Service (will be renamed to eduGAIN Discovery Service most likely) is operated on http://discovery.eduteams.org (several physically distributed servers) and a test instance on http://ds-test.eduteams.org/. Its software is the CESNET SAML2 Discovery Service implementation (PHP). Even though the service is not considered yet a production service according to the GEANT PLM (because it is neither part of the eduTEAMS or eduGAIN service currently), the service has been operated as managed service on the same production hardware by CESNET that CESNET uses for their own production Discovery Service. The three main features that distinguish this implementation from others are:
The Discovery Service documentation (for SP administrators) is on the GEANT wiki. The RA21 prototype Discovery Service (special branch based on pyFF, python) has been developed by Leif Johansson (SUNET) with and for the RA21 project. A prototype of the user interface is available on the pyFF nightly instance. It demonstrates an example user interface that was invested quite some work in together with RA21 UI experts and that was mostly created with the RA21 target services (login on publisher web sites) in mind. |

The discovery pilot will be handed over to T1 eduGAIN for the purpose of making it a production service Most likely, the RA21 work continued in this cycle will not be complete. Ideally, this cycle is followed by another cycle with similar staff member and a better understanding of the RA21 service. |
