EMI Service Endpoint Registry (EMIR)
A Federated Service Endpoint Registry conceived during the EMI project. Its main goal is to discover all the Service Endpoints that exist. It consists of a collection of services that enables storing service records in a federated manner. Each of the record contains Service Endpoint Record (SER) according to the GLUE 2.0 standard. The deployment of EMIR (which implies building an EMIR network over WAN) is bipartite: 1) Building a rooted hierarchy with a single EMIR server aggregating all the information within a federation 2) Sharing the information at the root level among peered EMIR servers (using P2P), thus enabling intra-federation discovery.
