11. Reference Architecture Subgroup 11 A superset of a “traditional data” system A representation of a vendor- neutral and technology- agnostic system A functional architecture comprised of logical roles Applicable to a variety of business models –Tightly-integrated enterprise systems –Loosely-coupled vertical industries A business architecture representing internal vs. external functional boundaries A deployment architecture A detailed IT RA of a specific system implementation All of the above will be developed in the next stage in the context of specific use cases. What the Baseline Big Data RA IsIs Not

12. Reference Architecture Subgroup Main Functional Blocks 12 Big Data Application Provider System Orchestrator Data Consumer Data Provider Big Data Framework Provider Application Specific Identity Management & Authorization Etc. Discovery of data Description of data Access to data Code execution on data Etc.

18. Reference Architecture Subgroup Summary – The NIST Big Data functional reference architecture (RA v.1.0) is available for review as input document M0226. Next Steps – Continue the editorial and alignment effort – Map generic Big Data use cases to RA – Map specific collected Big Data cases to RA Let’s exchange additional ideas this afternoon at the breakout session! 18
