2012 Technology Hype Cycle GridPP30
2012 Cloud Hype Cycle GridPP30
2012 Big Data Hype Cycle GridPP30
The v’s of Big Data • Volume – talking petabytes, or at least 100s terabytes. • Variety – Can be structured or unstructured or a a mixture. • Velocity – A big driver: need iterations in O(day). • Veracity – Accuracy… “dirty-data” is common but harder to handle. • Value – What is the information worth? Very much a driver of the technology. • Four paradigms of science? • 1st– Observation and Experimentation • 2nd – Analytical or Theoretical methods • 3rd – Computational or Simulation driven discovery • 4th – Data-driven discovery.

Are we Big Data? • Volume – talking petabytes, or at least 100s terabytes. • Variety – Can be structured or unstructured or a a mixture. • Velocity – A big driver: need iterations in O(day). • Veracity – Accuracy… “dirty-data” is common but harder to handle. • Value – What is the information worth? Very much a driver of the technology. Yes and no; just like the cloud. Message is we can contribute and, as a funding concept, we should try and make better use than we did of cloud. We are responding (rather late now – but constrained by funding cycle) to Cloud but Big-Data is perhaps a bigger mindset... GridPP30
Be careful! GridPP30
2012 Investment We got no part of £189m and STFC got a minority (SKA and HC). UK3A We’ve registered concern with STFC GridPP30
ELC etc • ELC • Joining up infrastructure • Directors Group(GridPP, DiRAC, SCD, HC, STFC, Janet, Sanger, NCAS, EPCC …) • Survey etc • Interface to business • Evolve or become irrelevant. GridPP30
Meeting Themes 2008 • GridPP21: Coming of Age and being informed (Communication and information). • GridPP22: Service Resilience and Hardening the Grid. • GridPP23: Final Steps – Getting ready for LHC data. • GridPP24: Data! • GridPP25: Scaling the Peaks ahead (looking at technical challenges). • GridPP26: Efficiency and Effectiveness. • GridPP27: (at CERN) GridPP in the International Context. • GridPP28: UK Operations. • GridPP29: Evolution (looking at evolving requirements and environment). • GridPP30: Agenda Alignment. • GridPP31: GridPP5 Proposal. 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 GridPP30
GridPP30 Themes Cloud Computing and The Impact Agenda. (Positioning ourselves for GridPP5) GridPP30
GridPP31 Theme: GridPP5 Purely operational or some element of development? 2. Technical implementation: What would the GridPP5 Grid look like? 3. Political instantiation of the grid? 4. Boundary services: NGI/EGI APEL, CA, VOMS, and network? 5. Currently a big push in the UK to join-up the computing ecosystem (including HPC) – this needed to be an energy efficient computing ecosystem. We could not submit a bid in isolation… 6. Impact agenda! GridPP30
