November caGrid User Group Call

The monthly caGrid User Group meeting is scheduled for Thursday, November 19.

Topic: Secure caGrid Data Services with Data-level Authorization

Our discussion is aimed at creating secure data services based on caCORE SDK and CSM authorization. The three components together (caCORE SDK, CSM, and caGrid) allow a data service developer to build a data service with "data-level authorization". This capability allows service owners (those that deploy the service) to give access to portions of
the shared data set to specific users.
