  5. Synchronize • keep “in sync” (colloq.) • Following changes over time and • Keeping copies on different systems the same • Tackle only the unidirectional problem: From a Source, to a Destination

  6. Resources aka Web Resources: have URI, HTTP GET representation(s) • Many / Few • Big / Small • Fast / Slow

  7. Why?

  8. Scholarly repositories • Replicate data/articles for mirroring, reuse, indexing, ... • OAI-PMH for metadata • Many custom solutions for full content

  9. Linked data Fundamentally distributed but local copy often required. Either: • cache • sync local copy... • Many custom solutions for local copy MusicBrainz Last.FM DBpedia BBC GeoNames others...

  10. Didn’t you sell us OAI-PMH? Or... will ResourceSync replace OAI-PMH? • Proven metadata transfer protocol • Widely adopted in our community • Predates REST, not “of the web” • Not adopted for content transfer Can replace, likely coexistence

  11. What?

  12. 1. Baseline sync Initial load, copy, or catch-up from source • need list of all resources • optional packaged content Want to • avoid out-of-band setup & customization

  13. 2. Incremental sync Keep up-to-date with changes at a source • need information about changes • optional packaged content • minimal primitives: create/update/delete Want • allow catch-up after destination offline • lower latency and/or greater efficiency than repeated baseline sync

  14. 3. Audit Destination should be able to verify whether it is synchronized with a source • need list of all resources + fixity info Want • lower latency and/or greater efficiency than baseline sync • note: subject to some latency

  15. How?

  16. All ResourceSync documents are Sitemaps with minor extensions

  17. Minor? <urlset xmlns=“http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9” xmlns:rs="http://www.openarchives.org/rs/terms/”> <rs:ln …/> <rs:md …/> <url> <loc>http://example.com/res1</loc> <lastmod>2013-01-02T13:00:00Z</lastmod> <rs:ln …/> <rs:md …/> </url> <url> … </url> </urlset>

  18. Baseline sync & Google Most basic capability is Resource List: • Snapshot of state of resources • URI, datestamp + optional extra fixity info • Destination does GET on each resource • ResourceSync Baseline sync & Audit • Google/Bing/Yahoo!/etc. harvest

  19. Modular Discovery 1 2 3 4 Four Core Capabilities

  20. Extensible Extensible use of Link Relations from Atom • Spec describes use for mirrors, patches, historical, provenance, conneg... • Use <rs:ln rel=“your-relation-here” .../> Extensible attributes for fixity etc. • Includes lastmod, fixity, length, type... Extensible framework -> new capabilities

  21. Push = Lower latency Pull • easy setup, no trust required Push Changes • lower latency, better scaling • same descriptions as pull • standard transports (XMPP, Websockets...) • can push discovery info to trigger pull

  22. Timeline January 2013 June 2013 July 2013 Fall 2013 • Tools and libraries being developed to ease implementation • First beta • Version 0.9 • Update and push spec • NISO standardization • Tutorials at major conferences (OAI8, OR, JCDL,...)

  23. http://www.openarchives.org/rs/ • Framework • Archives • Push (to come) • Links to Google group, associated articles, blogs, etc.

  24. That’s all folks
