[Iplant-api-dev] EOL dates for fAPI and Lonestar?

[Matthew Vaughn]

We have not set a deadline for decommissioning the current version of the Foundation API, but I think it will be a couple of quarters after we move the majority of iPlant-developed HPC apps to the updated release. As for the lifetime of future Agave-based APIs, we expect to operate those for much longer as there is explicit support engineered in for API versioning.

Lonestar is leaving production as an XSEDE resource in June, but iPlant and its partners will still have access to it as we are continuing to operate it for the non-XSEDE partners that contributed to its acquisition and operations for the foreseeable future.

Is there a hard deadline after which fAPI will be unavailable?

Is there an expected lifespan for the current version of Agave?

On a related note, does someone know when TACC's lonestar system is being phased out?
