Use a Traction instance for the May 31 2023 AnonCreds Workshop

[swcurran]

I'm (delighted to be) on the hook to host an AnonCreds workshop with Hyperledger on May 31. Last I heard we had over 200 people signed up. I can create the slides and materials easily, but it is called a workshop, and I'm working with Rodolfo Mirando of Roots.ID on that part. We need a way to have users try out creating a credential, issuing it and verifying it, where more time is spent on the AnonCreds part, and less on the Aries part.

Akiff, Hannah, Aaron and I talked at OSS and think that Traction could be a great way to do this. We would have each participant requisition and receive a Traction agent. They use that to create a schema or two, connect to a holder and issue a credential (or two) and they do a presentation request with multiple credentials.

To do that we need some effort on the Enterprise Apps team (yes, these will go into issues if we want to go forward):

• deploy (if needed) an instance of Traction that can be used. Or use an existing one.
• make sure we can support the load -- we'll have as many participants as possible get their instance before the workshop.
• Use BC Wallet as the holder — display QR codes for the interactions.
  • Might also enable having the agent to connect to itself as the holder -- so that participants only need one agent. Evidently that doesn't work today for some reason.
• Construct a script for them to follow -- with space for them to do their own playing with the schema and the presentation request.

Confirming we can use the BC Wallet — that it is available globally,

More details to follow.

We should be able to use https://tenant-ui-dts-dev.apps.silver.devops.gov.bc.ca as instance - c.c.: @WadeBarnes
For the load testing, can we use @usingtechnology script/load tester to figure out the provisioning part? The "general" usage should be fine, I think, maybe we just tweak and increase the resources a bit.

As noted by @cvarjao, we might be better off with a dedicated instance that we can tear down once the workshop is over to limit possible stability/performance issues on the limited services currently using the DTS instance.

@swcurran instance has been deployed ( see bcgov/DITP-DevOps#74 ) and credentials to innkeeper provided separately.

Do you need a hand building/improving the script to follow, or are we good as long as the instance is up and running?
