Re: [kmip-comment] how to implement and integrate kmip in databased project

Hello Peter,

    
Thank you very much for this information.

    
regarding my last github issue filling i was having some issue in
      certificate regarding setup of client and server but now it
      solved.

    
i am having plan to not only backup /tmp but also i will modify
      source code so that SQLite store data other then /tmp directory
      (may be /var/lib/pykmip* or something similar) so that during
      restart it will not lost.

      storage, both in terms of robustness and security. If you're
      interested in that work, let me know and we can start discussing
      details.

    
I am open source developer and huge fan of open source. I will be
      more than happy to work with you regarding this object storage
      both in terms of robustness and security. 

    
I am having experience in storage domain like Development of
      GlusterFS and Ceph (best for object storage).

    

    
I am eagerly looking to discuss with you regarding this. 

    

    

    

    
Thank you,

Hi Gaurav,
        

        

        
Apologies for missing your original email last week, I did
          not connect that email to the GitHub issue you had filed.

        

        

        
The PyKMIP server is currently intended to be used for
          testing or demonstrations, ideally as a stand-in for a real
          KMIP appliance during software development. The underlying
          object storage is a simple SQLite flat file stored under /tmp.
          If that file is lost, your keys will be lost as well. If you
          make backups of that file, you should be ok in the short term.
          I would not recommend using the PyKMIP server for
          critical/production environments.

        

        

        
Long term I am interested in improving the object storage,

Hello Tony Cox,

              
Thank you very much for your mail.

              
As of now i found out one open source implementation of
                KMIP that is PyKMIP https://github.com/OpenKMIP/PyKMIP

              
As of now i managed to run kmip server successfully. 

              

              

              

              
Basically i need to use KMIP to manage my master key
                that is using for encryption/decryption of all secondary
                key. for eg: Oracle Key Vault do the same. I need to
                implement the same.

              

              

              

              
Do you think i should avoid using PyKMIP based
                implementation of KMIP ?

              

              

              

              
Thanks,

Hi Guarav,

                    
The KMIP Technical Committee discussed your query
                      at it's last meeting. The consensus response
                      follows.

                    
To the KMIP TC's knowledge, there are no
                        currently supported open source implementations
                        of KMIP. The few that are available appear to
                        have been abandoned at KMIP v1.0 or v1.1.

                    
Please find a list of KMIP implementations at
                      https://wiki.oasis-open.org/kmip/KnownKMIPImplementations
                      

                      

                    
Should you have further questions, please
                        continue to send them to the KMIP comments list.

                    Hello Team, 

                      

                      I am very new to KMIP. 

                      

                      I am working on a module  which need
                      implementation or integration of KMIP. 

                      

                      Recently i saw oracle key vault is based on KMIP
                      but its on open source its only available in
                      enterprise edition. 

                      

                      

                      May i know how can i implement kmip  in c++ or how
                      can i integrate it in my module. 

                      

                      

                      Is there any client/server based KMIP example so
                      that i can refer them to learn and implementation.
                      

                      

                      

                      Thanks,
