Pages from Alliance site

  • We need to clarify what is moving from the current alliance site before it shifts to WordPress

  • The Alliance wants to keep this site a simple as possible and there are currently some pages under LEARN/Resources that have underlying databases

  • The majority of content we are looking at is static and is under Products

  • Everything that is under Specification is easy but need to determine what needs to be moved

  • The real question is about being able to identify specific nodes that can be handled by the remote site (RDF resolution system and CV services on UKDA site plus new DDI Alliance AWS space)

  • One possible way is just a lift and shift move all the /Specification

  • Landing page on WordPress site and then it sends you off to other system

  • What Darren needs is a site map (node list) so he knows what gets moved

Specific questions:

docs.ddialliance.org - what is this intended to provide

  • Currently we have a number of official documents associated with specifications that provide access to documentation such as field level documentation and high level documentation

  • These are static sets and can be moved

  • If it is difficult to tease out the nodes it may be possible to support static content under Products - all of this content is managed by TC

Resources:

  • Tools, examples, profiles currently have underlying databases and we would like to retain this functionality

  • These items are more in line with the products and it may be optional to move them under the Products umbrella. Learn could still retain a page that would describe and link to these resources

  • To accomplish this we need to locate a workable opensource tool to manage search and display of these databases. TC will begin this search

Agency registry:

  • DNS integration is being ended in 2025

  • Could move to Amazon Route 53 DNS service

ACTION ITEMS:

  • Obtain site map (node list)

  • Transfer page listing for move to Jared’s spreadsheet

  • Determine content that must move to retain or add functionality or to just support easy division of contents for routing

  • Clarify who will physically be doing the set up on the AWS configuration

  • Identify an open source tool to support access to database content for tools, examples, and profiles

  • Determine consequences of moving content to alternate site based on node divisions proposed
