Platform Team/Sugar Network/Implementation

Summary

The requirements:

  • Implement initial system in short period of time;
  • Server should work on XO laptops;
  • System should support synchronisation between servers and provide full featured text search.

That's why using Platform_team/Active_Document to:

  • Server should be as simple/lightweight as possible;
  • No SQL, just NoSQL;
  • Since server should support full featured text search, use Xapian and keep it as a "NoSQL replacement".
  • The data will be stored in the files system.

Todo

  • Network notifications framework to, e.g., let client cache resources and refetch them only on updates. Reuse existing or implement something similar to Facebook's real-time updates.
  • Support collaborative work on Wiki pages for different resources.
