The iDigBio portal will be capable of redirecting object service requests to provider services, in order to assist providers in creating and managing both identifiers and object services. The portal will serve as a proxy for the provider. The portal will include a facility for registering URI patterns and service end points. When a proxy request is received, the portal will use standard http capabilities to redirect the request to the provider service. | |||
In the example below, the herbarium collection of the Florida Museum of Natural History has registered a URI pattern with iDigBio. A request for information about the particular digital object is sent by a user to the proxy server at iDigBio. | |||
http:// proxy.idigbio.org/?q=http://ids.flnmh.ufl.edu/herb/abcd12345678 | |||
The proxy server will send the user a response to redirect the request to the following URL for processing by the Museum’s object services. | |||
