Stress testing #27

Open practicalparticipation opened 11 years ago

practicalparticipation commented 11 years ago

DFID's new aid transparency portal will be able to embed a list of research publications linked to aid projects.

This can be implemented either by:

Periodically (e.g. weekly) caching a list of papers when the static pages of the DFID site are rebuilt. This will lead to around 3000 queries over a short period of time.

or

Javascript widget calling the API or SPARQL every time a user views a page.

We should identify a point to stress-test the triple store and API implementation to see which is likely to be the best solution, and any implications for caching and pre-caching of results.

Who is going to build that embed?

practicalparticipation commented 11 years ago

We could either (a) make minor adaptations to the existing widget Rupert built, or (b) this would be built by DFIDs developers. They have asked in the first instance for an API to fetch from (we may need one tweaked parameter in the APi to facilitate this - I will discuss on 10th May); but suggested the widget option as a fall back.

Coool - let's talk about the environment we'll need to do this on on the 10th too.
