|
iRODS (integrated Rule-Oriented Data Systems) is a
second generation data grid system providing a
unified view and seamless access to distributed
digital objects across a wide area network. It is
an adaptive middleware data grid that operates by
means of user-supplied rules and a Rule Engine
which interprets the rules to decide how the
system is to respond to various requests and
conditions.

Changes:
GSI was added as an authentication method. The ERA module contains new collections management micro-services for manipulating objects, user accounts, access rights, and metadata. Several micro-services have also been added to retrieve audit trail information from the iCAT. An XML module has been created and contains a micro-service that performs XSLT transformations on iRODS objects. HDF5 support was added along with PHP and Java APIs, improved Oracle access, and support for public accounts. Passwords are no longer stored as plain text.
