Apr 1, 2026Summary for 2026-04: Overview: In April 2026, the team delivered foundational platform improvements and stabilizing fixes across the AMRC-FactoryPlus connectivity stack, focused on reliability, scalability, and faster go-to-market readiness. The work aligned with transitioning to modernized APIs (Notify v2), strengthening authentication/authorization, and maturing the CI/CD and deployment pipelines to accelerate safe, repeatable releases. The month emphasized reducing operational risk, improving error visibility, and enabling real-time or near-real-time capabilities through server readiness groundwork. Key features delivered: - Jetty server switch and WebSocket groundwork: migrated from Grizzly to Jetty to enable WebSocket support and prepare for real-time notifications. - Begin Notify v2 API integration and migrate notify client to v2 paths: started aligning client and server API surfaces with the new Notify v2 design to support future service-api moves. - Functioning change-notify endpoint beyond WATCH: established a functioning path for change-notify, enabling broader real-time update flows. - FPServiceClient creation: introduced FPServiceClient to simplify frontend-proxy service interactions with the MetaDB/ConfigDB stack. - Helm deployment enhancements: updated dependencies and moved service registration into the Helm chart, improving consistency and deployment reliability across environments. - Build infrastructure and MetaDB deployment: built infrastructure, deployed MetaDB, and wired the deployment into the GitHub Actions build pipeline for more predictable, automated releases. - Maven/CI/CD improvements: refactored POMs, aligned versioning across modules, and adjusted CI steps to support GH Maven repositories and consistent artifact handling. - General downtime/reliability and performance-oriented fixes: implemented updates to config, authentication, and API surfaces that reduce risk and improve operational stability. Major bugs fixed: - Replaced buggy JsonValueReader: resolved JSON parsing edge cases by removing the buggy JsonValueReader and relying on robust readers. - Removed unused argument: cleaned up unreferenced arguments to prevent confusion and potential misuse. - Enforced UUID etag for ConfigEntry.Value: updated etag handling to UUIDs to improve identity integrity and client expectations. - Removed orphaned structured config entries: fixed orphan removal logic to clean up structured entries without leaving dangling references. - Authentication and error specificity improvements: enhanced messages for authentication failures to aid troubleshooting and reduce support cycles. - Registration must be a structured app: enforced structured app requirements to prevent runtime breakages and improve bootstrapping reliability. - Misc stability improvements: fixed various minor issues (gitignore typo, metadb Helm typo, Java image build bug, and retry guards for list queries) to reduce noise and prevent regressions. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Business value: Reduced operational risk, faster and more reliable deployments, and a clearer path to real-time notification capabilities for customers. The groundwork now supports WebSocket-enabled notifications, more robust error handling, and unified CI/CD practices, enabling quicker release cycles with fewer incidents. - Technical integrity: Strengthened authentication flows, improved ID management for configs, and reconciled MetaDB/ConfigDB models to enable consistent data management across environments. The changes also prepare the stack for future API migrations and service-api package moves. - Collaboration and process: Consolidated Helm-based service registrations, streamlined Maven-based versioning for CI, and introduced a dummy load endpoint to support service-setup bootstrap workflows, improving bootstrap reliability. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Java (multi-module ecosystem), Maven, and POM refactoring with a unified base-pom approach - GitHub Actions CI/CD orchestration and GH Maven repository integration - Jetty server migration and WebSocket groundwork, enabling real-time capabilities - Notify v2 API strategy and client path alignment - FPAuth and permissions enforcement across API, notify, and object operations - Reactive programming concepts (Observables) and API response handling enhancements - Helm-based deployment practices and service registration management - Robust JSON handling, RDF/MetaDB object model alignment, and dump load validations

Jan 1, 2025January 2025 for AMRC-FactoryPlus/amrc-connectivity-stack focused on strengthening security, data governance, and maintainability while delivering measurable business value. Key achievements: - Auth Data Model and ACL Enhancements: Introduced a new Auth DB schema with UUID utilities, generalised identities, and ACL views; bootstrap ACL support via BOOTSTRAP_ACL for overriding auth data; groundwork for ConfigDB integration of Sparkplug/Kerberos identities. - Dump and Import Data Handling (v2 dumps): Added SQL-based v2 dump loading and restructured dumps by moving R2 classes out of the main dump, improving upgradeability and data migration pathways. - Service-Client Migration and Utilities Refactor: Migrated code to the new service-client, removed legacy utilities references, and relocated MetricBuilder, improving startup reliability and maintainability. - Ranking and Grant Handling fixes: Improved re-ranking logic for existing objects and corrected grant ranking examples, strengthening permission correctness and data integrity. - Job Specification Enhancements: Back-off limit promoted to a top-level Job spec parameter, improving reliability and observability of retry behavior. Impact: These changes deliver stronger security posture, clearer upgrade paths (notably for v2/v3 transitions), more robust data import and permission handling, and faster, more reliable service startup and operation. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Auth DB schema design, UUID utilities, ACL modeling and bootstrap ACL, v2 dump loading via SQL, migrating to service-client, metrics/logging refactor, and iterative improvements to ConfigDB ranking and grants.

Nov 1, 2024November 2024: AMRC-FactoryPlus/amrc-connectivity-stack advanced core platform readiness and scalability. Key outcomes include enabling large payload ingestion via configurable body limits and ConfigDB limits; launching a v2 API with updated class structure, app-based config schemas, and query views; integrating authentication with UUID input validation to prevent invalid requests; adding S-expression test script support to strengthen testing; and delivering Editor UX improvements (per-object editor menu and API-endpoint mapping) to boost editing efficiency. Supporting work included edge deployment scaffolding, dependency lockfile updates for reproducible builds, and initial object model simplifications to streamline data structures. Major bug fixes addressed reliability and correctness, including HTTP 410 handling for never-valid URLs, a service-setup typo fix, and ensuring initial ranks initialize correctly. This month consolidates a shift to a more scalable, secure, and testable architecture, enabling larger data payloads, smoother migrations to the new API, and a richer local development experience for editors and testers, while maintaining stability through targeted bug fixes."
