Plan for a short transition (3 to 5 years). Target D-Day (Start of migration): SeptJan. 1st, 20232024
Reduce the costs for NMHSs:
Avoid the need for dual stack (GTS and WIS2) for as many sites as possible
Reduce the number of RTHs between now and D-Day → Identify “super “Transition Helpers RTH”
In each RA, identify RTHs willing to run GTS services until the end of the migration, so that others can cease GTS operation rapidly and act as WIS2 focal sites
Allow identified GISCs to stop the technical WIS1 role (cache and metadata catalog) in favour of “WIS2 Champion” role (training, communication, shared service,…)
Promote the use of “WIS2 in a box”
Identify WIS2 Champions
Monitoring WIS2 operations and KPI migration
Similar to WIS monitoring + follow GTS to WIS2 migration KPI
Global open broker
Allow any interested NC to publish/subscribe using these brokers
Training/communication/onboarding
Identify members within each RA acting as WIS2 Champion (GISC and others)
“WIS2 success story” portal (aka visual catalog)
Similar to GDPFS portal, follow WIS2 implementation and provide a visual communisation tool to show WIS2 progress
