[jira] Created: (TUSCANY-1784) Picture on SCA Java Web page is
confusing
Picture on SCA Java Web page is confusing
-----------------------------------------
Key: TUSCANY-1784
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-1784
Project: Tuscany
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Website
Environment: All
Reporter: Simon Nash
The picture on the SCA Java Web page (http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany/sca-java.html) is technically inaccurate and does not communicate the main value proposition of SCA. In SCA and Tuscany, each node is in exactly one domain (not shared between domains as shown), and domains communicate with each other using bindings (not through a node as shown).
This picture could be fixed, but even then it would not be the best showcase for the value proposition of SCA. Something showing recursive composition and the ability to use multiple bindings would be better. I'm attaching an example of the kind of thing that I mean. This would need a bit more tweaking to add the multiple bindings dimension. I can easily do this if people think it's a good idea.

The file sca-java.data/distributed-abstract.png has not been updated at
p.a.o following the confluence updates. I'll try and find out why.

I have been browsing the Wiki. I couldn't find a diagram different from
the diagram at:
http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany/sca-java.html
Can you post a link? Thanks.

Sounds like a good set to me. Covers the important themes. Without making it
too complicated I would like to adjust 2 in some way to show that the
assembly in 1 can be distributed across the domain shown in 2. Is this just
a matter of additing a component, i.e. a box with service and reference
arrows, into each node?

Simon Laws commented on TUSCANY-1784:
-------------------------------------
For some reason the web site is not showing the same diagram as is in the page in the wiki
How about we have a digram like you propose that shows what's in a node + a diagram like the one on the (wiki version of the) site that shows how a node relates to a domain.
I don't think the diagram you propose on it's own put across the idea that SCA is about more than tightly bound application assembly.

Simon Nash updated TUSCANY-1784:
--------------------------------
Attachment: assembly.jpg
This is an example. It would need a bit more tweaking to make it ready to put on the Web site. I am happy to do this if people like the idea.

Simon Nash commented on TUSCANY-1784:
-------------------------------------
i like the diagram on the Wiki version of the Web site a lot better. I think there are 3 aspects of Tuscany/SCA that we could illustrate here with diagrams:
1) The assembly model
2) The distribution model
3) The extension model for how extensions plug into the Tuscany core
Ideally this page would have diagrams for all 3 of these. I can update the diagram that I attached so that it is suitable for 1). We have one for 2 on the Wiki and we need to figure out how to make it display on the Web site. I'll have a go at working on one for 3).
