Statement on LDP1/Metadb Hosting Support

Angela, Sharon

We would like to hear your feedback on a statement about LDP1/Metadb Hosting support that a small group has been preparing for presentation to Product Council. 

  • The members of D-Reporting working group need more time to review the document and provide feedback (Very many libraries, more than 200 in the union "GBV" alone. In addition, other unions with their libraries and institutions. Most are self-hosted and hosting for other institutions.)

Notes:

  • more time for review of the document will be provided to ensure the D-Reporting working group has the additional time needed

  • document should be more clear about what is needed when hosting FOLIO versus hosting LDP, etc.

  • problem with opening up pipeline for Kafka-based data flow versus LDP1; might not work to ship that much data across cloud instances

  • important to offer institutions a choice over how to host

  • Does FOLIO have a reporting solution or is the reporting solution outside of FOLIO?

  • Some institutions joined FOLIO project with the understanding it included a reporting solution
