CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_
Reported by Daisy Shen/IBM
Network Database Minutes
This is a new Working Group Chaired by Daisy Shen. The first meeting
consisted of discussing the Charter, defining the scope and preparing
for the next meeting.
All attendees agreed upon the Charter; although there was no discusson
regarding the schedule and the milestones. Those items will be
discussed at the next meeting.
Define the Scope
1. It will be built as a client/server model which will be called a
database requester/server.
2. RPC will be used on top of TCP/IP as the communication vehicle.
3. We will define the concept of the Unit of Work.
4. We will do data conversion.
5. Security:
o Use Kerberos for authentication
o Let each database system handle its own security.
6. If the server has more than one database, we require that the
databases be homogeneous.
Work to Be Done
Before the next meeting, we will find out:
o The effort of the OSI/RDA group related to this subject.
