perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Aaron Brown <>]

I would like to announce the availability of software that implements a 
Topology service. It is written in Perl, and uses the Berkeley Sleepycat 
XML Database for back-end storage. The release uses the Beta Topology 
Schema currently under development. The software can handle requests to 
get the entire contents of the database, to perform an xquery against 
the database and to add/replace/update topological elements in the 
database.

You can download the software from 
http://wiki.perfsonar.net/jra1-wiki/index.php/Perl_Topology_Service

Also included at that page are some example queries as well as an 
example instance document for the schema along with a description of how 
to construct fully-qualified identifiers for each topological element. 
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to email the list or 
contact me directly.

Cheers,
Aaron
