Notes 

VIVO - ElasticSearch integration

Dragan expressed uncertainty about the specific benefits and challenges of this switch, and clear specification of VIVO customers' expectations. However, the issue of replacing Solr with ElasticSearch has been mentioned a couple of times in the recent period. Dragan discussed the potential replacement of Solr with ElasticSearch for the Brazilian team's in-house solution. He suggested that this change could simplify their architecture (https://brcris.ibict.br/en/about), potentially reducing issues with resource management and server monitoring. However, he also noted that this decision to replace Solr with ElasticSearch might be driven by a preference for some VIVO customers. Dragan and Ivan discussed the implementation of a search engine and the testing of an older version of an API. Ivan agreed to test the system with version 7.0 and update the configuration accordingly. Dragan suggested that Ivan include instructions on how to test the system in the description of pull request (https://github.com/vivo-project/Vitro/pull/469). 

VIVO 1.14.3

The release candidate was tested by both Dragan and Christian. It has been released. 

VIVO demo site

Dragan proposed the idea of establishing a demo site for the current version of VIVO, to replace the https://openvivo.org/, which is no longer fully functional. He hopes that this site could be hosted by Lyrasis and could include a continuous integration approach (synchronization with main branch and reloading data). However, Brian expressed concerns about maintaining a continuously integrated demo site and suggested instead having two sites - one for promotional purposes with the latest stable release and another for testing purposes. Dragan agreed to discuss these ideas with the relevant Lyrasis team members and update Brian on the progress. 

VIVO 1.15.0

Dragan reported progress on VIVO 1.15.0, with plans to soon close all pull requests, which included 47 tickets. He highlighted the need to update documentation and prepare a Google form for collecting test results, specifically for testing new features. Dragan expressed his hope to publish something before the summer break, which is likely to occur from mid-July to mid-August. An approach from the previous year, where bi-weekly calls were held during the summer break, was suggested as a potential solution.
