Atomio technical guide

Atomio is a syndication server which can hold multiple Atom syndication feeds. It has an API to create/delete feeds and entries, and provides resource level security compatible with Ontoserver’s resource level security.

It is designed as a companion to Ontoserver to:

• Keep a static record of content loaded/available to a server, and;
• Keep static snapshots of releases from an authoring server to make available for publication.

Being a static source of truth for releases enables “production” read-only Ontoserver instances to be ephemeral, removing the need to backup and maintain state.

System Requirements

Atomio uses a simple in-memory database which is stored on disk to record the feed state, along with the artefacts in the feeds. As a result it can require a large amount of disk space if it stores many very large artefacts. However typically it serves very few requests infrequently, and the performance of these requests is not critical.
