This page is an area to house relevant links and documents and to facilitate discussions around directions for instrumentation in the TIER releases.
TIER Instrumentation Phase 1 is currently being implemented according to this specification.
Questions for the next phase of instrumentation:
- What data should be collected in the next phase for instrumentation?
- Both Grouper and Shibboleth can send rich sets of data to a remote collector
- There are several operational uses for this data
- Who's running version X of component Y?
- Who's running on OS Z?
- Who's running near RAM capacity?
- What IdPs haven't refreshed InCommon metadata in the last 24 hours?
- What Grouper deployments have not applied patch A?
- Should the collected data be constrained to 'for-public-consumption' classes of data?
- If not, how do we apply appropriate controls to the data to ensure it is handled appropriately?
