Agenda & Notes

1. Any other items for the agenda? 

   1. Nothing added
      
      

2. Demo from Northwestern University: Serverless API for IIIF

   1. Serverless API for IIIF

   2. @karen.didrickson and @Mat Jordan presenting

   3. as=iiif all data returned as IIIF

   4. Current: dcapi was a simple opensearch proxy, and iiif was static manifests, no collections, and regeneration problem

   5. New Solution: restful api, what if all things were iiif, including search, what if iiif powered more things than just a viewer

   6. All iiif is just a serialization

   7. implemented using AWS SAM, and serialized using lambdas.

   8. 1mil requests at 20 ms is ~.04

   9. as much as possible front end is all iiif

   10. any response from the api can be returned as a IIIF including search results as collections, items, etc

   11. we’re not delivering canvases in collection

   12. all of a work and metadata are IIIF and “related items” are also IIIF

   13. all the metadata for a page is included in the IIIF manifest not two separate requests

   14. large responses: chunked response and next page is itself a collection at the end scales well

   15. bloom, clover, and serverless iiif are in either labs or core

   16. Q what do you do with things like facets

       1. Not everything fits into a manifest

       2. we are using a “see also” for the full pipeline

       3. we’re using iiif as our primary datasource for UI components

       4. Search results are powered by a normal elasticsearch
