Key Deliverables for TIER R1
By March 4 (from WG Wiki Home)
By April 2016 (from Charter)
- Publish the first iteration of a comprehensive IAM functional model that encompasses the full scope of currently envisioned TIER deliverables.
- Publish the first iteration of core schema for the basic resources relevant to IAM (people, groups, services). Make extensibility and customization of schema easy but in a way that does not break existing service deployments.
- Pair the basic group and membership management APIs with an event-driven messaging approach to the same functionality. Clarify the circumstances that favor one approach over the other.
- Assess possible models for APIs and data structures around consent.
- Document the first round requirements for administering and monitoring IAM infrastructure and specify the kinds of instrumentation needed in each component to support administration and monitoring.
