perfSONAR-PS Topology Service

The perfSONAR-PS Topology Service provides the ability for administrators to make topology information about their networks available to remote clients. Client applications and services can be written that use the Xquery language to perform arbitrarily complex queries against the data stored in the database. The Topology information returned by the topology service follows the perfSONAR Topology XML schema being developed in coordination with the the DICE Control Plane Working Group. The Topology Service stores the topology information in the Oracle Berkeley XML Database.
