Meeting Agenda/Minutes

Feb 16, 2020: special edition of the monthly architect's meeting to test holding Hanoi planning via conference call.  Meeting will be from 10am to 1pm EDT

Agenda

...

...

  • Blacklisting of devices and how/when to remove.  Tony to argue on how blacklist APIs and delete APIs can be called by some system ; Trevor to argue how this needs to be automated.  Implementation of any automation (whether all in metadata, via message bus to rules engine/app services, etc.) - all dependent on the first decision about whether to automate.
  • Finalization of config-seed removal ADR (#0005)
  • Revisiting holding and when work needs to enter holding (and what it takes to get out)
  • Acceptance of DS and testing needs - how to bring a new device service from holding to the EdgeX repos (presented by DS WG – Iain, Tony)
  • Bound checking issue (presented by Tony)
  • Apache 2 licensing requirements (per Tony E message and Brett P (LF) and Ducan (IOTech) responses.Whether it was necessary and wise to move code from EdgeX org to holding only to go back to EdgeX org again (vs just make a new repo directly in EdgeX) - initially covered in Jan 15, 2020 TSC
  • Address policy on patch/minor release based on discovery of CVE or other security issue (high/critical) - would we force dot release of all services, just affected ones, ??? For Consul and Mongo, we just minor rev'ed those services and containers.  What if issue was in one of the go services?  Would we have to minor release all (example go from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1) on all services even if only one was affected?

Open Topics

  • Med - Standardizing units of measure
    • Per meeting of 3/15, Jim to research more like the ANSI X-12 standard and see what other IoT/edge projects are using.
  • Med - Declarative Kong applicability
    • Allowing us to drop Progress DB
    • But can you configure groups/users ACL
    • Only supports JWT users
  • Med - what's the future state of system management service(s) look like
    • How to deal with dynamically adding/removing services
    • Does it reside in registry/configuration service
    • How to handle security issues
  • Low - Is the Wiki the best place to document project decisions (those outside of or smaller than ADRs).  This was our initial take.  Should we revisit?
  • Low - Revisit combine core services at least at all executables in one image
    • Release would be easier but image would be bigger with more complex compose files
    • Per Core WG of 2/18/21 - is it at least worth exploring the combination of Core Metadata and Core Command since the two have to share so much data?
    • Core command is just a proxy service today, but reasons for having a separate service include: additional security to protect actuation; issue multiple device commands with one request (make one request and fire it to all Modbus devices or all devices under the control of one service); provide the means to limit requests down to a device so as not to overwhelm it or wake it up).  These needs could also be incorporated into a combined metadata service but there are advantages to separation of concerns.
  • Low - Digital twin (and LWM2M) applicability - being worked via liaison with DTC
  • Low - Time series database support and applicability
    • Ian Johnson has an example of app service to InfuxDB export (snap in the store)
  • Low - where should tool/script for creating new device and application services be placed?
    • After the architect's meeting of Jan 26, 2021, it was decided that "templates" should be created in all SDKs to allow for the easy creation of new services (removing the old samples in the SDKs).  The templates will be a means for users to copy and create a new service with some instruction on how to rename and replace TODOs with necessary code.
    • After the templates are in place, there is a decision to be made about where automation can be placed to use the templates to create new services (versus a manual copy).  In the CLI, in a new tool, in a set of simple scripts?

On Hold Topics or Pending Research

  • High - V2 API - should we add security foundation added to that (per some of earlier V2 API designs via Dell and Bryon N)?
    • Adding token to authenticate a micro service call (is this in scope for Ireland)
    • May not be needed unless all services are distributed
    • We need to explore alternatives to provide secure / locked out service to service communications
    • ADR being created and to be reviewed in the Security WG.
  • Revisiting holding and when work needs to enter holding (and what it takes to get out)
  • Acceptance of DS and testing needs - how to bring a new device service from holding to the EdgeX repos (presented by DS WG – Iain, Tony)
  • Bound checking issue (presented by Tony)
  • Apache 2 licensing requirements (per Tony E message and Brett P (LF) and Ducan (IOTech) responses.Whether it was necessary and wise to move code from EdgeX org to holding only to go back to EdgeX org again (vs just make a new repo directly in EdgeX) - initially covered in Jan 15, 2020 TSC
