Meta data scalability Sample Clauses

Meta data scalability. Section 1.4 above describes why a scalable metadata capability is fundamental to across disciplinary, federated archive architecture. This section explains how progress on this has been managed within 7.1.1, given the wider uncertainties surrounding metadata services across EUDAT. From the start of the EUDAT project, while there has been good progress in developing many of the services, safe replication, data staging or dynamic replication, and so on, there has been much more uncertainty about what metadata services EUDAT should be delivering. This is made clear in the opening statement of the Meta Data Task Force Discussion Document3: “In the EUDAT DoW a task is described to come to a Joined Metadata Domain for the resources managed by EUDAT services. However this work is underspecified and no clear goals were set. To come to a clearer picture especially about what the scope and ambitions of EUDAT in this respect should be, the EUDAT EB decided to create a Metadata Task Force (MTF) chaired by Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx (FT) (DKRZ/ENES) and Xxxx Xxxxxxx (DB) (MPI-TLA/CLARIN) to guide internal EUDAT discussions and come to a ‘position’ document until end of April. In the MTF Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (ML) represents the EB and the MTF itself will work in the work package concerning EUDAT Services and Technology Appraisal”. As a result of this it was agreed that the current task would (could) not define the scope of how to address metadata scalability, until the wider EUDAT project had first defined its approach and scope of EUDAT metadata services. The EUDAT Meta Data Task Force was convened for that purpose, and developed the Meta Data Task Force Discussion Document as a vehicle for defining the approach and scope for EUDAT. The MD TF discussion document was approved by the EUDAT Executive board on June 4th 2012. Subsequently4, it has been agreed that WP7 would work directly within the EUDAT MD TF to clarify and contribute to the forthcoming detailed work plan and that resource contributed by Assessing Scalability and Preservation work package to the MDTF can contribute to all and any key problem areas, 3 See Metadata_TF-DiscDoc-V10.docx at xxxxx://xxxxxxxxxx.xxx.xx/display/Eudat/Metadata+Task+Force 4 9th EUDAT Executive Board Meeting 2nd July 2012.

The work plan will eventually be submitted to the EB6’7, and once approved, and the work underway, this will then ...
