Jira Issues

• Need to clean up to reflect current state of project so we can attract new committers
• Issues should be categorized (e.g. a lot of issues are very high level and will be overwhelming for new committers)

Target specific communities

• data archives who could actually maintain deployment of SDAP
• end users who could share how to use SDAP APIs

Ease of deployment

• Dependencies of k8s results in higher barrier to entry

Improve documentation (quickstarts, deployments)

New components such as in situ data services and IDEAS API are dependent on AWS

• IDEAS API
  • • Remove dependency on SQS/SNS by using RabbitMQ
    • Serverless / lambda dependencies
• Release these components that are dependent on AWS as beta versions
• Refactor them to remove AWS dependencies and release as V1.0
