Not Assigned Description
The development of a series of MVPs, that can demonstrate the control and monitoring of the SDP subsystem and establishes the environment for integrating components of the SDP architecture especially workflows. This will be developed in close alignment with MVPs from the Observation Management and Controls ART.
The initial focus of the work will be an MVP which progresses the detailed design, implementation and validation of major interfaces, technology choices, and NFRs. This will largely be based around the control and monitoring interfaces, along with a set of services capable of executing real-time and batch workflows. It is envisaged that this MVP will evolve into a product capable of supporting the functions needed for the commissioning of AA0.5, and providing a demonstration of the SDP architecture.
As part of the development this is expected to integrate with components developed in other DP Epics and Feature Sets.
Epic Hypothesis Statement (https://www.scaledagileframework.com/epic/)
| For | Operators, AIV / PSI engineers commissioning early array releases (ie AA0.5), SKA developers |
| who | are involved in the control of the observatory and integration of SKA software components |
| the | SDP MVP |
| is a | Demonstrator consisting of a set the deployment of a set of containerised services and simple workflows |
| that | Gives a high level end-to-end prototype of the data processing system and an demonstration of how SKA1 subsystems might operate together |
| Unlike | Existing non-SKA specific existing systems or isolated subsystem prototypes |
| our solution================== | Focuses on a set of conventions and technologies that implement the current SKA1 SDP architecture and control-system guidelines. Provides a prototype of the control and monitoring of all of the SKA1 subsystems working together as a simple end-to-end signal chain. |
