Data Architecture Final Report Chris Jordan Assistance from Kelly Gaither, Phil Andrews, J Ray Scott, and a cast of dozens
Process • Over a year of discussion, interaction with various communities • Campus Champions • Science Gateways • Data Collections and Data WG • Teragrid conference BOFs • Team discussions and conference calls • Kelly Gaither, Phil Andrews, J Ray Scott
What is the Data Architecture • Providing a conceptual view of data • Understanding how data is used in individual projects and in a larger lifespan • Methodology for identifying gaps in data infrastructure • Not: • A specific set of hardware or software recommendation • A set of standards to be utilized by TeraGrid • A static view of the community and its needs
Data Architecture “Spectrum” View • Communities of Use • From individual projects to the global public • Length of Value • Scratch data (days to weeks) to irreproducible data (to infinity and beyond) • TeraGrid must support the full breadth of data needs across both axes in some fashion
Implementation Goals • Minimal number of new technologies • Minimally intrusive to users • TeraGrid and RPs don’t have to provide everything directly • TeraGrid must have a strategy to support all needs
Arch Recommendations 1 • Software Support for Data Management and Replication • iRODS Multi-Site deployment • Global Namespace/File System Service • Distributed Storage(J-WAN) and HSM/File system integration • Policy and Documentation support for Data Collections • Improved GIG and RP support for Data Collections WG
Arch Recommendations II • Policy and Allocations Support for Data Lifecycle Management • Ideally: Data Allocations • Minimally: Requirement to express needs in requests • Coordination with Data Infrastructure Providers • Coordination group formed, 1 DataNet Partner, Reddnet, HathiTrust members • User Services Support for Data Management • Chris working with Amit, Presentation to AUS team 11/5 • Workflow and Portal tools to support expression of data lifecycle needs
Implementation Issues • Are there any major issues or concerns? • Is there anything described that RPs would NOT participate in/support through existing resources and Data-WG staff time? • How to proceed with allocations process and policy changes?
