Need implementation experience with CDMI Extensions - please respond

[Mark Carlson]

Cloud Storage Folks,

The SNIA is moving to make CDMI version 1.1 (latest draft) an official SNIA Architecture Standard (SNIA Technical Position) prior to submission to JTC 1.

CDMI has been evolving organically by publishing extensions to the previous version and encouraging folks to implement that functionality before incorporating into the next version of CDMI.

For any extension that has been implemented interoperably (usually plugfest testing) by two or more implementers, we have Integrated that extension into the latest draft of CDMI.

For any extension that has been implemented by a single implementer, we have attached the extension as an Annex in the latest draft. We also include the implementers name (below) as we know it.

For the remaining extensions, they are listed below as Stand-alone and can be accessed via the web site (but are not part of CDMI 1.1 at this point).

What we need from you is: any information you have with respect to implementations of the above extensions that we have not yet taken into account.

If you have implemented an extension with the status of Annex or Stand-alone above, please let us know by emailing tc...@snia.org with the Subject: " CDMI Extension Implementation".  Please let us know this info As Soon As Possible so that we can include the extension in the CDMI 1.1 release.
