Partner Process

  • Provision new container in blob storage account for migration
  • Provision and distribute credentials to partner so they can SFTP files into blob container
  • Partner uses SFTP client to upload all files to blob container
    • Ideally, the files are structured in the folders the same way they want them uploaded to Revver
      • If they are not though, the CSV files they upload, will need to have details around where to upload
  • Optional: Partner uploads CSV / JSON file to describe metadata fields
    • expected columns: name and type
  • Optional: Partner Uploads CSV / JSON file to describe metadata groups
  • Optional: Partner uploads CSV files with structure and metadata to specific location in storage account
    • CSV will have specific columns for certain specific details (node id, desired revver path, blob path, metadata group ids, maybe others?) but all other headers will be metadata field values.
  • Partner uploads JSON file to a specific location to indicate they are done uploading all the data
    • Expected Properties: Import Type (match structure in Blob storage or get structure from CSV), email of user to import them as
    • Credentials should be revoked at this point probably
    • Migration function app should be kicked off to migrate all the data to Revver
    • Should we generate migration report?
    • When migration is complete blob storage container should be deleted

Additional Questions

  • Could this replace Pangea for Data Imports?
    • Yes, we would just need help them use an SFTP client
  • Could it replace Data Exports for Pangea?
    • No, but we should look at creating a more reliable tool for this
    • I think we could create a tool pretty quickly (especially if we have limited UI) that could do it more effectively and reliably though. All it needs to do is download folders and files.
