CPR Registry Evaluation Presentation
Code
The CPR code is Java-based. It contains two components, the CPR Core (database, and common routines) and the CPR Services (SOAP-based). The Open Source version of the Penn State Central Person Registry is Apache 2 licensed. The source code for the registry can be found in GitHub
In addition to the source code, Penn State has developed a QuickStart that includes all of the CPR compiled code, application and messaging servers, and sample data. The QuickStart is a fast way to kick the tires on the CPR without building the source code.

- Support for RESTful APIs. Code already exists for "GETs", the implementation for the remaining APIs should take 2 weeks.
- Support for non-person identities in the registry.
