1. 1 Grid DAIS: Database Access and Integration Services Greg Riccardi Florida State University riccardi@cs.fsu.edu

2. 2 Overview of Presentation Goals of DAIS Conceptual model of Grid database access Examples of client-service interactions  Discovery and creation of services  Asynchronous query processing and datasets  Updating from datasets Representing Sky Query in DAIS Other topics/issues

3. 3 Goals of DAIS The group seeks to promote standards for the development of grid database services, focusing principally on providing consistent access to existing, autonomously managed databases.  Provide service-based access to existing data management systems.  Accommodate several widely used data management paradigms (e.g., relational, object, XML) within a consistent framework.  Provide sufficient information about itself to allow the service to be used given the specification of the service and the metadata provided by the service.  Peacefully coexist with other Web and Grid Service standards.  Be orthogonal to Grid authentication and authorization mechanisms.  Support higher-level information-integration and federation services.

4. 4 Desirable Properties of DAIS Systems OGSI/A compliant  Letter and Spirit Plugability/Extensibility  Different kinds of data resources  Many access mechanisms  Evolvable Easy to understand and apply  Existing standards/designs  Tooling GridServices and WebServices applicable Supports current technology Access AND integration  Integration of different models at the data level Implementable Integrateable into customer scenarios Technology independent

5. 5 The Model – External Artifacts DBMS DB Resultset External data resource manager External data resource External data set External = external to the OGSI compliant grid

6. 6 The Model – Logical Artifacts DBMS DB Resultset data resource manager data resource data activity session data request data set

7. 7 Data Resource Manager External data resource manager (edrm)  A data management system such as a relational database management system or a file system Data resource manager (drm)  A grid service that represents the external data resource manager  Binds to an existing edrm  Supports management operations such as start and stop  Mainly out of scope of DAIS. A place holder for interaction with other working groups

8. 8 Data Resources External Data Resource (edr)  A data construct managed by the external data resource manager, for example, a database or a directory structure.  An external data resource manager may manage many external data resources Data Resource (dr)  A grid service that represents an external data resource  Represents the point of contact to the data structures managed by the edrm.  Exposes meta-data about the structure of the edr  Defines the the target for queries across the edr  Can act as a notification source for notifications associated with the edr  Is bound to existing or newly created edr  Has similarities with a data set. More of which later.

9. 9 Data Sets External Data Set (eds)  Data logically separated from an external data resource manager Could be a snapshot (query) of a relational database or data generated by some process prior to being inserted into a database  Will be typed and identifiable Data Set (ds)  A service wrapper for the eds  Exposes meta data about the type, description, format of the eds  Immutable  Exposes simple data access operations depending on the type of data. getAllData, createIterator, getTuple, getFile, getByte, etc.  Can be moved while maintaining its handle and data identity  Can be copied or replicated while maintaining its data identity  Can be delivered to a data manager for persistence Query and update could be supported
