The Jetstream cloud is a collaboration between Cyverse partners TACC and University of Arizona, University of Chicago, Johns Hopkins University, and Indiana University to bring the flexibility and ease-of-use of CyVerse Atmosphere to the entire community of science, at a much larger scale. Jetstream is a cloud resource operated as part of XSEDE, and built from two independent OpenStack clusters, each capable of supporting thousands of virtual machines and data volumes. The clusters are integrated via the user-friendly "Atmosphere" interface developed by CyVerse, with authentication enabled by Globus, and, unlike the CyVerse cloud also offer full access to Openstack web service APIs. Jetstream features a diverse catalog virtual machine templates. One can launch a personal Galaxy server, do advanced biostatistics, use Matlab, or experiment with new technologies like Docker, all on Jetstream. This talk highlights the unique capabilities of Jetstream and provides information about how researchers from all over can access it.

This presentation provides an overview of the business challenges faced by IT departments and service providers and why and how they are looking at OpenStack and open source options to solve these issues. The presentation also covers how Dell is involved in OpenStack community and how it is helping customers succeed with OpenStack with its comprehensive end-to-end solutions powered by OpenStack at its core.
There have been heaping piles of buzz surrounding Ceph and OpenStack lately. Similar amounts of work have been going in to the integration between Ceph and OpenStack in recent versions. We'll take a look at how this work is making all the awesomeness of Ceph available to users in a simple, intuitive, and powerful way. The world of Havana and beyond is certainly no different, and promises to continue the trend of both functionality and buzz-worthiness.
This talk given at the OpenStack meetup in Boston (Aug 14, 2013) gives a brief introduction to Ceph for the uninitiated and take a look at what's coming down the road. The short term of Havana has plenty to keep fans of both platforms happy and busy, but there are plenty more interesting problems that we can tackle. In addition to the concrete of the short term we'll take a look at how less-oft-used pieces of the Ceph platform can help augment your OpenStack setup, some general blue sky thinking, and what the community can do to get involved.

Enterprise Data Warehouse Optimization: 7 Keys to SuccessHortonworks
You have a legacy system that no longer meet the demands of your current data needs, and replacing it isn’t an option. But don’t panic: Modernizing your traditional enterprise data warehouse is easier than you may think.
Many posit that cloud architectures/business models will bring about a more patient, gradual availability model, where failures are either rendered unimportant because of mass replication or load shifting, or they are tolerated in exchange for cheaper services.
Whatever the long term promise, the fact is that outages and performance degradation continue to dog the industry. According to the 2017 Uptime Institute Survey, 92% of management are more concerned about outages than one year ago.
As your website, mobile app, and the APIs that power them become more distributed, failures resonate outward and have an ever-greater impact on your business. You no longer can just worry about your own on-premise and cloud infrastructure, but must also be aware of your company’s third party SaaS vendors and THEIR infrastructure too. Join Andy Lawrence, Vice President at 451 Research, Engin Akyol, CTO of Distil Networks, and Scott Hilton, VP & GM Product Development of Oracle Dyn for a thought-provoking conversation about next-generation website resiliency.
Key takeaways include:
- Why you need to treat the risks of binary failures and degradations differently
- Resiliency architectures for cloud-optimized and cloud native applications
- The importance of software-defined components such as global traffic management, application synchronization, and guaranteed data consistency
- How Content Delivery Networks, DDoS protection, and Bot Mitigation complement each other to deliver increased website performance
- How non-traditional disruptions like the recent hurricanes can affect your network resiliency
- Case Study: Distil Networks field guide for building out a global platform

How to create intelligent Business Processes thanks to Big Data (BPM, Apache ...Kai Wähner
BPM is established, tools are stable, many companies use it successfully. However, today's business processes are based on data from relational databases or web services. Humans make decisions due to this information. Companies also use business intelligence and other tools to analyze their data. Though, business processes are executed without access to this important information because technical challenges occur when trying to integrate big masses of data from many different sources into the BPM engine. Additionally, bad data quality due to duplication, incompleteness and inconsistency prevents humans from making good decisions. That is status quo. Companies miss a huge opportunity here!
This session explains how to achieve intelligent business processes, which use big data to improve performance and outcomes. A live demo shows how big data can be integrated into business processes easily - just with open source tooling. In the end, the audience will understand why BPM needs big data to achieve intelligent business processes.

I had a talk at ECSA 2014 in Vienna: The Next-Generation BPM for a Big Data World: Intelligent Business Process Management Suites (iBPMS), sometimes also abbreviated iBPM. I want to share the slides with you. The slides include an example how to implement iBPMS easily with the TIBCO middleware stack: TIBCO AMX BPM + BusinessWorks + StreamBase + Tibbr.
A graph is a structure composed of a set of vertices (i.e.~nodes, dots) connected to one another by a set of edges (i.e.~links, lines). The concept of a graph has been around since the late 19th century, however, only in recent decades has there been a strong resurgence in the development of both graph theories and applications. In applied computing, since the late 1960s, the interlinked table structure of the relational database has been the predominant information storage and retrieval paradigm. With the growth of graph/network-based data and the need to efficiently process such data, new data management systems have been developed. In contrast to the index-intensive, set-theoretic operations of relational databases, graph databases make use of index-free traversals. This presentation will discuss the graph traversal programming pattern and its application to problem-solving with graph databases.

As containerization continues to gain momentum and become a de facto standard for application deployment, challenges around containerization of big data workloads are coming to light. Great strides have been made within the open source communities towards running big data workloads in containers, but much is left to be done.
Apache Hadoop YARN is the modern distributed operating system for big data applications. It has morphed the Hadoop compute layer into a common resource-management platform that can host a wide variety of applications. At its core, YARN has a very powerful scheduler which enforces global cluster level invariants and helps sites manage user and operator expectations of elastic sharing, resource usage limits, SLAs, and more. YARN recently increased its support for Docker containerization and added a YARN service framework supporting long-running services.
In this session we will explore the emerging patterns and challenges related to containers and big data workloads, including running applications such as Apache Spark, Apache HBase, and Kubernetes in containers on YARN.

Architect’s Open-Source Guide for a Data Mesh ArchitectureDatabricks
Data Mesh is an innovative concept addressing many data challenges from an architectural, cultural, and organizational perspective. But is the world ready to implement Data Mesh?
In this session, we will review the importance of core Data Mesh principles, what they can offer, and when it is a good idea to try a Data Mesh architecture. We will discuss common challenges with implementation of Data Mesh systems and focus on the role of open-source projects for it. Projects like Apache Spark can play a key part in standardized infrastructure platform implementation of Data Mesh. We will examine the landscape of useful data engineering open-source projects to utilize in several areas of a Data Mesh system in practice, along with an architectural example. We will touch on what work (culture, tools, mindset) needs to be done to ensure Data Mesh is more accessible for engineers in the industry.
The audience will leave with a good understanding of the benefits of Data Mesh architecture, common challenges, and the role of Apache Spark and other open-source projects for its implementation in real systems.
This session is targeted for architects, decision-makers, data-engineers, and system designers.
Enterprise Architecture in the Era of Big Data and Quantum ComputingKnowledgent
Deck from April 2014 Big Data Palooza Meetup sponsored by Knowledgent. Enterprise Architect James Luisi spoke
Summary: Several characteristics identify the presence of big data. Invariably as new use cases emerge, new products emerge to address them. At this point, there are so many use cases, and so many products, that frameworks to organize and manage them are necessary. A couple of examples of useful frameworks to manage and organize include families of use cases and architectural disciplines.

Similar to Knowledge Processing with Big Data and Semantic Web Technologies (20)
Access to biomedical data is increasingly important to enable data driven science in the research community.
The Linked Open Data (LOD) principles (by Tim Berner-Lee) have been suggested to judge the quality of data by its accessibility (open data access), by its format and structures, and by its interoperability with other data sources.
The objective is to use interoperable data sources across the Web with ease.
The FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) data principles have been introduced for similar reasons with a stronger emphasis on achieving reusability.
In this presentation we assess the FAIR principles against the LOD principles to determine, to which degree, the FAIR principles reuse LOD principles, and to which degree they extend the LOD principles.
This assessment helps to clarify the relationship between both schemes and gives a better understanding, what extension FAIR represents in comparison to LOD.
We conclude, that LOD gives a clear mandate to the openness of data, whereas FAIR asks for a stated license for access and thus includes the concept of reusability under consideration of the license agreement.
Furthermore, FAIR makes strong reference to the contextual information required to improve reuse of the data, e.g., provenance information.
According to the LOD principles, such meta-data would be considered interoperable data as well, however, the requirement of extending of data with meta-data does indicate that FAIR is an extension of the LOD (in contrast to the inverse).
Quantifying the content of biomedical semantic resources as a core for drug d...Syed Muhammad Ali Hasnain
The biomedical research community is providing large-scale data sources to enable knowledge discovery from the data alone, or from novel scientific experiments in combination with the existing knowledge.
Increasingly semantic Web technologies are being developed and used including ontologies, triple stores and combinations thereof.
The amount of data is constantly increasing as well as the complexity of data.
Since the data sources are publicly available, the amount of content can be derived giving an overview on the accessible content but also on the state of the data representation in comparison to the existing content.
For a better understanding of the existing data resources, i.e.\ judgments on the distribution of data triples across concepts, data types and primary providers, we have performed a comprehensive analysis which delivers an overview on the accessible content for semantic Web solutions.
It can be derived that the information related to genes, proteins and chemical entities form the center, whereas the content related to diseases and pathways forms a smaller portion.
Further data relates to dietary content and specific questions such as cancer prevention and toxicological effects of drugs.
PROV has been adopted by a number of workflow systems for encoding the traces of workflow executions. Exploiting these provenance traces is hampered by two main impediments. Firstly, workflow systems extend PROV differently to cater for system-specific constructs. The difference between the adopted PROV extensions yields heterogeneity in the generated provenance traces. This heterogeneity diminishes the value of such traces, e.g. when combining and querying provenance traces of different workflow systems. Secondly, the provenance recorded by workflow systems tends to be large, and as such difficult to browse and understand by a human user. In this paper, we propose SHARP, a Linked Data approach for harmonizing cross-workflow provenance. The harmonization is performed by chasing tuple-generating and equality-generating dependencies defined for workflow provenance. This results in a provenance graph that can be summarized using domain-specific vocabularies. We experimentally evaluate the effectiveness of SHARP using a real-world omic experiment involving workflow traces generated by the Taverna and Galaxy systems.
SHARP is a Linked Data approach for harmonizing cross-workflow provenance. In this demo, we demonstrate SHARP through a real-world omic experiment involving workflow traces generated by Taverna and Galaxy systems.
SHARP starts by interlinking provenance traces generated by Galaxy and Taverna workflows and then harmonize the interlinked graphs thanks to OWL and PROV inference rules. The resulting provenance graph can be exploited for answering queries across Galaxy and Taverna workflow runs.
Exploiting Cognitive Computing and Frame Semantic Features for Biomedical Doc...Syed Muhammad Ali Hasnain
Nowadays, there are plenty of text documents in different domains that have unstructured content which makes them hard to analyze automatically. In particular, in the medical domain, this problem is even more stressed and is earning more and more attention. Medical reports may contain relevant information that can be employed, among many useful applications, to build predictive systems able to classify new medical cases thus supporting physicians to take more correct and reliable actions about diagnosis and cares. It is generally hard and time consuming inferring information for comparing unstructured data and evaluating similarities between various resources. In this work we show how it is possible to cluster medical reports, based on features detected by using two emerging tools, IBM Watson and Framester, from a collection of text documents. Experiments and results have proved the quality of the resulting clusterings and the key role that these services can play.
An Approach for Discovering and Exploring Semantic Relationships between GenesSyed Muhammad Ali Hasnain
This paper presents an approach for extracting, integrating and mining the annotations from a large corpus of gene summaries. It includes: i) a method for extracting annotations from several ontologies, mapping them into concepts and evaluating the semantic relatedness of genes, ii) the definition of a NoSQL graph database that leverages a loosely structured and multifaceted organization of data for storing concepts and their relationships, and iii) a mechanism to support the customized exploration of stored information. A prototype with a user-friendly interface fully enables users to visualize all concepts of their interest and to take advantage of their visualization for formulating biomedical hypotheses and discovering new knowledge.
A single interface for accessing life sciences (LS) data is a natural consequence to master the data deluge in this domain. The data in the LS requires integration and current integrative solutions increasingly rely on the federation of queries for distributed resources. We introduce a federated query processing system name ``BioFed", customised for LS-LOD. BioFed federates SPARQL queries over more than 130 public SPARQL endpoints.
The life sciences domain has been one of the early adopters
of linked data and, a considerable portion of the Linked Open Data cloud is comprised of datasets from Life Sciences Linked Open Data (LSLOD). The deluge of biomedical data in the last few years, partially caused by the advent of high-throughput gene sequencing technologies, has been a primary motivation for these efforts. This success has lead to the growth in size of data sets and to the need for integrating multiples of these data-sets. This growth requires large scale distributed infrastructure and specific techniques for managing large linked data graphs. Especially in combination with Semantic Web and Linked Data technologies these promises to enable the processing of large as well as semantically heterogeneous data sources and the capturing of new knowledge from those. In this tutorial we present the state of the art in large data processing, as well as the amalgamation with Linked Data and Semantic Web technologies for better knowledge discovery and targeted applications. We aim to provide useful information for the Knowledge Acquisition research community as well as the working Data Scientist.
Health care and life sciences research heavily relies on the ability to search, discover, formulate and correlate data from distinct sources. Over the last decade the deluge of health care life science data and the standardisation of linked data technologies resulted in publishing datasets of great importance. This emerged as an opportunity to explore new ways of bio-medical discovery through standardised interfaces.
Although the Semantic Web and Linked Data technologies help in dealing with data integration problem there remains a barrier adopting these for non-technical research audiences. In this paper we present FedViz, a visual interface for SPARQL query formulation and execution. FedViz is explicitly designed to increase intuitive data interaction from distributed sources and facilitates federated as well as non-federated SPARQL queries formulation. FedViz uses FedX for query execution and results retrieval. We also evaluate the usability of our system by using the standard system usability scale as well as a custom questionnaire, particularly designed to test the usability of the FedViz interface. Our overall usability score of 74.16 suggests that FedViz interface is easy to learn, consistent, and adequate for frequent use.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.
