Draft NBD-PWG Reference Architecture 3/10/15 RDA P5, San Diego, California
RDA P5, San Diego, California Mission The ultimate goals of RDA Big Data Interest Group is to produce a set of recommendation documents to advise diverse research communities with respect to: How to select an appropriate Big Data solution for a particular science application with optimal value. Important: Need to connect with various science/research domains! What are the best practices in dealing with various data and computing issues associated with such a solution. 3/10/15 RDA P5, San Diego, California
RDA P5, San Diego, California Objectives Clarifying, and sometimes defining, terminologies related to Big Data, leveraging: ISO/IEC JTC 1 Terms and Definitions, NIST Big Data PWG (NBD-PWG) Definitions, and Taxonomies documents, and RDA Terminologies WG Characterizing leading Big Data technologies. Important: Need to collaborate with relevant RDA IGs and initiate Working Groups. Example characteristics include: performance, resource utilization, scalability, usability, flexibility, extensibility, propensity in supporting scientific collaborations, etc. Collaborating with external entities through IG member involvements, including: ISO, NIST, INCITS, OGC, NBD-PWG, EarthCube, EarthServer, etc. Producing a set of recommendation documents based on results obtained from activities in attaining above objectives, including: A systematic classification of algorithms pertinent to the characterization of Big Data technologies, Characterizations of Big Data technologies investigated, especially their value characteristics in each category of use cases, Frequency of each class of algorithms and/or queries used by workflows in various use cases, delineated by science domains/subdomains, and Feasible combinations of analysis algorithms, analytical tools, data and resource characteristics and scientific queries. 3/10/15 RDA P5, San Diego, California
RDA P5, San Diego, California Participation Domain scientists wishing to utilize Big Data solutions for their research and/or applications, Data specialists with experience in data production, curation, analysis, and management, especially involving large volumes and varieties of data, Computational scientists or software engineers with special interests in data analysis techniques and algorithm analysis, especially pertaining to BigData relevant technologies and tools, Experts, or aspiring experts, of various Big Data technologies and tools, Computational infrastructure and architecture experts in fields such as distributed computing, high-performance computing, and database systems, Data scientists with a blended interest involving some subsets the activities mentioned above, in particular with share, use and reuse of open scientific datasets, and Managers involved in any combination of the activities mentioned above. 3/10/15 RDA P5, San Diego, California
Interaction Mechanism Monthly teleconference to with planned agenda to discuss specific issues. Proposing 10 AM US Eastern Time (4 PM Central European Time) every 1st or 2nd Thursday of each month. We will use GoToMeeting instead of the default RDA means for teleconferencing. Agenda should be available 1 week before meeting. Meeting minutes should be available within 1 week after meeting. Asynchronous collaboration using RDA Wiki, Google Docs, and email lists. Semiannual RDA Plenary meetings to hold sessions for progress reports and face-to-face interactions amongst interested parties. 3/10/15 RDA P5, San Diego, California
