| <description>The OODT grid services (product and profile services) use CORBA or |
| RMI as their underlying network transport. However, limitations |
| of CORBA and RMI make them inappropriate for large-scale |
| deployments. For one, both are procedural mechanisms, providing a |
| remote interface that resembles a method call. This makes |
| streaming of data from a service impossible, because there are |
| limitations to the sizes of data structures that can be passed |
| over a remote method call. Instead, repeated calls must be made |
| to retrieve each block of a product, making transfer speeds |
| horribly slow compared to HTTP or FTP. (Block-based retrieval of |
| profiles was never implemented, resulting in out of memory |
| conditions for large profile results, which is another problem.) |
| Second, both CORBA and RMI rely on a central name registry. The |
| registry makes an object independent of its network location, |
| enabling a client to call it by name (looking up its last known |
| location in the registry). However, this requires that server |
| objects be able to make outbound network calls to the registry |
| (through any outbound firewall), and that the registry accept |
| those registrations (through any inbound firewall). This required |
| administrative action at institutions hosting server objects and |
| at the institution hosting the registry. Often, these firewall |
| exceptions would change without notice as system adminstrators |
| changed at each location (apparently firewall exceptions are |
| poorly documented everywhere). Further, in the two major |
| deployments of OODT (PDS and EDRN), server objects have almost |
| never moved, nullifying any benefit of the registry. This |
| project, OODT Web Grid Services, avoids the prolems of CORBA and |
| RMI by using HTTP as the transport mechanism for products and |
| profiles. Further, it provides a password-protected mechanism to |
| add new sets of product and profile query handlers, enabling |
| seamless activation of additional capabilities.</description> |
