Updates from Various Reporting Related Groups and EffortsVarious

The Reporting SIG is using small work groups to address priorities and complete our work. Each week, we will provide updates to the Reporting SIG from these various reporting-related groups and efforts:

  • Community and coordination
  • LDP Data Privacy Working Group
  • LDP SysOps Working Group
  • Software development
Review of LDP table namingTable NamesAngela

Nassib has requested community feedback on the naming of tables in the LDP database:

At present, some table names use prefixes to remove ambiguity, e.g. /finance-storage/groups is mapped to finance_groups, while others do not use a prefix, e.g. loans, users, and groups, as they are considered to have a more general application.  In other cases, it may not be obvious whether a prefix should be used, e.g. requests.

The advantages of using a prefix are clarity and leaving "room" in the namespace for more similarly named concepts in the future to co-exist with the current tables.  The disadvantage is longer and more complex table names.

Now that queries are being developed, there will be an increasing number of dependencies on table names, and it is a good time to pause and give some thought to whether some of them should be changed, because it will be increasingly difficult to change them later without having to modify existing queries.

A spreadsheet with the table mappings and naming is linked here, and I would appreciate input from the Reporting SIG:
