DescriptionApplications and experiments in all areas of science
are becoming increasingly complex and more demanding in
terms of their computational and data requirements. Some
applications generate data volumes reaching hundreds of
terabytes and even petabytes. As scientific applications
become more data intensive, the management of data
resources and dataflow between the storage and compute
resources is becoming the main bottleneck. Analyzing,
visualizing, and disseminating these large data sets has
become a major challenge and data intensive computing is
now considered as the “fourth paradigm” in scientific
discovery after theoretical, experimental, and
computational science.
The eighth international workshop on Data-intensive Computing in the Clouds (DataCloud 2017) will provide the scientific community a dedicated forum for discussing new research, development, and deployment efforts in running data-intensive computing workloads on Cloud Computing infrastructures. The DataCloud 2017 workshop will focus on the use of cloud-based technologies to meet the new data intensive scientific challenges that are not well served by the current supercomputers, grids or compute-intensive clouds. We believe the workshop will be an excellent place to help the community define the current state, determine future goals, and present architectures and services for future clouds supporting data intensive computing.
