Go through action items

 

 

Todd posted a list of integrations available here: 

https://folio-org.atlassian.net/wiki/display/SYSOPS/List+of+Integrations

 

Other integrations we may want to add:

  • Institutional repository

  • Digital Collections management

  • Knowledge Base

 

Culture of direct database access discussion

  • Lots of people still expect direct database access.

  • Built-in tools in RDBMS often don’t meet needs

  • Librarians used to writing SQL queries

  • Data warehouse may be a good solution to allowing ad-hoc querying of data (possibly fully indexed by a tool such as elastisearch or solr)

 

Discussion of how we get our list of desired integrations into development pipeline.

We need a product owner for SysOps.  Ingolf will bring this issue to the product council.

Agreement to pull together a list of integration work that needs development time that we can take to the PC.

Chris M will do a rough draft over the next couple days, and we'll talk about it next week, before the PC meeting.

Deployment environments

 

 

 

Migrations

 

Migration discussion:

SysOps SIG is definitely going to be responsible for many aspects of migration

ETL tool of some sort/who is responsible?  Developed and shared by different institutions?  API specification requests by SIG?

Action items

@Ingolf Kuss : appeal to the Product Council (chair), that we need a PO for Sys Ops. Maybe we need more than one PO: * for EBSCO's internal staff. * for the broader community
@Ingolf Kuss : appeal to the PC (chair), that the SIG has additions to the FOLIO Feature Backlog (formerly: V1 Dev & Milestone plan 2) (in significant amount and quality)
@Chris Manly : review List of Integrations
add lines to FOLIO Feature Backlog below the line or create separate spreadsheet.
group: discuss new lines for FOLIO Feature Backlog. @Ingolf Kuss : Add topic in FOLIO Discuss for this,
