1. CHEF II / Sakai Architecture

2. CHEF II Changes uPortal replaces Jetspeed –jsr 168 portlet, servlet compliant Spring replaces Turbine component framework –IoC types 1, 2, and 3 supported, OSID Loading supported Services Design Pattern unchanged OKI OSIDs and full reference implementation Current CHEF services deprecated or made to OSIDs –still available, compatible with the new OSID services –Some converted to full high level feature specific OSIDs New Tool Design Pattern –JSF based ??? XUL ??? New component Packaging –Hot deploy of features, service components

3. Tools Tool Pattern Service APIs Services Pattern Service Component Service Component Service Component Service Component Component Framework ServletPortletJSP Application Configuration II TomcatuPortal Access Navigation Portal Navigation Tool Resources (jsp, css, png. …) Tool Framework

4. TomcatuPortalServletPortletJSP Tool Framework Access Navigation Portal Navigation Tool Resources (jsp, css, png. …) Tools Tool Pattern Service APIs Services Pattern Service Component Service Component Service Component Service Component Component Framework Application Configuration

5. Service Design Pattern Separation of concerns –Tools to handle user interactions –Services to handle specific functional, business logic, data type modeling responsibilities Dependent on interfaces, not implementations –Clients dynamically bound to implementations by API Major service or manager API with most methods Supporting core interfaces for the data entities modeled Implemented by many different components Services Pattern

6. Service API OKI OSIDs –Rich common services CHEF I Services –Higher level feature specific –Becomes OSIDS, merges with the OSIDS New high level feature specific OSIDS –Packages with new feature sets / tool suites Service APIs

7. Service Components Implement one service API and related core interfaces Dependent on other service APIs Implement other aspects –Authorization, Event tracking, etc. Implementation choices –IoC types 1, 2 or 3 –J2EE Enterprise Beans Selected and configured by the application Service Component

8. Component Framework Container for all service components, possibly for tool components Support many design styles –IoC type 1 - a service manager to find dependent service components by api –IoC type 2, 3 - support for auto-wiring and configuration through bean setters and constructors Life-style and Lifecycles –shared instance, instance per thread, instance per usage –init and destroy methods, possibly others… Configuration driven –Component selection for each API –Configuration values Component Framework

9. Application Configuration Select a service component for each needed Service API Configure each component Multiple configurations - many packages Hot modify configurations (w/ new package deployment) Application Configuration

10. Tools Orchestrates user interaction –Present user interfaces (Views) –Process user requests –Tracks interaction state Responsible for an area of functionality –Chat, Announcements, Schedule, Resources … Java classes –designed to the Tool Pattern Static file resources –png, css, jsp, etc. Heavy lifting done by services –Common services –Custom services –Dependent on service API, not implementations Tools

11. Tool Design Pattern tbd, eta Feb ‘04 Support abstract high level UI parts –button, menu, text field, alert, table … Support action model Support view selection Support interaction state Support multiple user agents (browsers) Configurable by placement instance Cross tool interface consistency Skins Tool Pattern

12. Tool Framework To support the tool design pattern Extensions classes to Servlet and Portlet Utilities Third party packages (velocity, JSF, etc). Tool Framework

13. Navigation Like Tools, present UI and handle requests Getting around to specific tool instances –Tools organized in “spaces”: Sites –Multiple tools per “page”: Portal –Other modes Portal Navigation Access Navigation –URL access to resources. Access Navigation Portal Navigation

14. Packaging Tool, Tool Suite Service Components No code change to add new package Possible Hot Deploy

15. Standards Servlet Portlet JSP JSF (?) ServletPortletJSP

16. Portal Engine uPortal Other standard portlet (JSR 168) portal engines Portlet uPortal

17. Portlet + Servlet Model Portlets for navigation, tool placement, tool configuration, usage sessions Servlets for popups and popins –Tool content without the portal decorations –New windows, iframes in portal windows Servlets for other navigations –Access, authentication, management, etc. Servlet Portlet
