Transition

New : WIS2.0, how to define successful Transition?

Rémy’s proposal for discussion (14th Nov. 2021 - Mainly targeted on GTS part):

Plan for a short transition (3 to 5 years). Target D-Day (Start of migration): Jan. 1st, 2024
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 “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 communication tool to show WIS2 progress
