I have just realized from https://github.com/ga4gh/data-repository-service-schemas/blob/drs-1.2.0/README.md#api-definition that GA4GH Data Object Service was the seed for GA4GH DRS, which has been partially implemented at 11d6873a4d453fe12ce025ce473226e813ed7dd8 . So, this issue is superseded by #23
Data Object Service standard allows using a common identifier to locate resources which are replicated among several cloud services, as it is described at https://registry.identifiers.org/registry/ga4ghdos . For instance,
ga4ghdos:dg.4503/01b048d0-e128-4cb0-94e9-b2d2cab7563d
can be queried ashttps://dataguids.org/ga4gh/dos/v1/dataobjects/dg.4503/01b048d0-e128-4cb0-94e9-b2d2cab7563d
In the obtained JSON the
urls
section contains the links to the different replicas of the dataset, which could be FTP, HTTP(S), S3 or Google Cloud URIs.
