gCube Information System

The gCube Information System (shortly, IS) delivers functionalities for publishing, discovering, and monitoring the set of resources forming the infrastructure. Moreover it allows to federate different infrastructures. It acts as the registry of the infrastructure, i.e. all the resources are registered in the IS and every service partaking in the infrastructure must refer to it to dynamically discover the other infrastructure constituents. Moreover, the approach provided by the IS is of great support for the dynamic deployment capabilities of gCube.
