Grid Integration - Overview

Overview

We provide the following tools and management interfaces, that allow grid owners to integrate their grid with their OpenSim grid web site and backoffice systems:

• Public User Registration and Password Reset
  Web pages with email verification, limited number of avatars per email address and default avatar support.
• Grid Statistics Frame
  HTML frame that can be integrated in a grid web site.
• Grid Map
  HTML frame that can be integrated in a grid web site.
• Grid Management Interface
  HTTP-S REST interface to create and update user accounts.
• RemoteAdmin OpenSim Interface
  Interface to perform OpenSim remote administration functions.
• Grid Database Interface
  Direct MySQL grid database interface (not recommended).
• Money Adapter
  Allows an easy implementation of a grid currency.

RemoteAdmin OpenSim Interface

We can provide you all information you need to be able to directly call the OpenSim RemoteAdmin interface of your grid. We recommend to use the Grid Management Interface instead, because it basically provides the same functionality at a more abstract level.

Grid Database Interface

For special needs we can also provide access to the central databases of your OpenSim grid. But we strongly recommend to avoid this. There are a number of reasons for not using the Grid Database Interface:

• The database format changes with new OpenSim versions, causing problems for applications that rely on a specific format
• You could easily cause serious damage to the central grid database contents, causing data loss, instabilities, etc.
• We will not take any responsibilty, if you damage your grid by using the Grid Database Interface
