In addition, the group supports site- wide infrastructures for authentication and authorization, and for the installation and management of Windows Servers and desktops. In 2017 the main thrusts were from device management to application management and from multipurpose services to more agile dedicated services, with an emphasis on virtualization and containerization for automated, rapid and scalable deployment. APPLICATIONS AND DEVICES Enhanced security and automation on desktops and servers Major automation advances were made in the windows infrastructure management utilising CMF, SCCM, Puppet, DSC, SMA and JIRA. A new terminal server infrastructure was deployed based on Windows Server 2016, upgrading the public cluster and extending many new custom clusters for the ATS sector. The PrintShop pricing was restructured without impact on volume, and the market survey for leased multifunction copiers launched. On the devices front, new contracts were adjudicated for PCs, laptops, screens and workstations and NUCs, and there was a smooth transition to new small-sized desktop models. Hardened PCs were deployed in sensitive services across site, significantly increasing the security of critical laboratory operations. Wi-Fi installation was enabled on Windows laptops and PCs which are now factory delivered with CERN’s WinPE image preinstalled and UEFI enabled. The migration to Windows10 was launched and 25% complete by the end of the year, and the SMBv1 phase-out was completed. On the applications front, increased security and cost savings were achieved by replacing Adobe Acrobat Pro across site. The CERN-wide migration to Office 2016 on Windows was started, and a wizard developed for the migration of DFS to CERNBox which was used to pilot this configuration towards the end of the year. The Mac Self-Service continued its steady growth, and a major upgrade was performed to enable SSO: Macs enrolled in self-service 6 | Page CERN IT Department Groups and Activities Report 2017 In line with Department strategy to consolidate onto Linux, progress was made migrating engineering HPC workloads including LSDyna. The dissemination of EDA tools knowledge continued through seminars, hands-on workshops, hardware presentations and technical training courses. DIGITAL REPOSITORIES Invenio v3 based services launched The multi-year refactoring of Invenio culminated in the release of Invenio-v3 base and auth bundles and launch of new v3 based services such as CDS Videos, OpenData and B2SHARE and Zenodo. These achievements were facilitated by a refactoring also of operations and processes in line with best practice for high-performance teams. In addition, new collaborations were established to help Invenio development with NII and NIMS in Japan and RERO association of public libraries in Switzerland. On the services front, CDS videos were split-off, redeveloped completely on Invenio v3, given a new modern user interface and relaunched as videos.cern.ch. Zenodo made a significant impact in the world-wide community by released DOI versioning, extended grant support and released a new blog and documentation. B2SHARE also made a significant upgrade based on Invenio v3 with extensible metadata and role-based access control. A major new release of CERN Open Data was made, containing 1PB of CMS data: The new videos.cern.ch interface Analysis Preservation service ran pilots with all 4 experiments, and ATLAS and LHCb made official policies recommending Analysis Preservation and REANA services. For REANA a working pilot system for executing analysis workflows on OpenStack/Kubernetes was released. The Digital Memory service launched digitisation projects for each type of historical multimedia, comprising ~5K video, 7 | Page CERN IT Department Groups and Activities Report 2017 ~300K colour photos and ~7K audios. An OAIS Archive Prototype running on CERN Cloud with e- ternity proof of concept was also launched. INTEGRATED COLLABORATION Indico v2 released The flagship collaboration hub, Indico completed the multi-year refactoring with the public release of Indico v2, celebrated with the second Indico User Workshop and the launch of the Indico community hub (https://hub.getindico.io). Room booking and conference management improvements were deployed, and a whole new workflow to support CERN site-access management through Indico was developed and deployed enabling badge printing for visitors. Code of general interest to the world-wide community, such as flask-multipass and flask-pluginengine, were released as independent open source packages. And CERN took over hosting of an Indico instance for PSI. The document conversion server used by Indico and EDMS was completely rewritten to provide better scalability and reliability. And the rooms services equipped another 20 rooms: On the service front, the new Webcast web site was released along with its new player, as well as a new web lecture player which handles low bandwidth connections better. The videoconference portals and backends were upgraded and an improved WebRTC client released. A new anti-spam engine based on FireEye was released into the email service. Preparations for migration of analogue phones to softphones got underway, migrating Lync servers to Skype4Business and deploying a new provisioning workflow for phone numbers. Finally on the Identity Management front, support was extended to certificates for embedded devices, resource management made more granular for unix services allowing AFS opt-out, and Active Directory disaster recovery procedures strengthen and tested.

  • Chapter 2 Introduction to Big Data Technology
    Chapter 2 Introduction to Big data Technology Bilal Abu-Salih1, Pornpit Wongthongtham2 Dengya Zhu3 , Kit Yan Chan3 , Amit Rudra3 1The University of Jordan 2 The University of Western Australia 3 Curtin University Abstract: Big data is no more “all just hype” but widely applied in nearly all aspects of our business, governments, and organizations with the technology stack of AI. Its influences are far beyond a simple technique innovation but involves all rears in the world. This chapter will first have historical review of big data; followed by discussion of characteristics of big data, i.e. from the 3V’s to up 10V’s of big data. The chapter then introduces technology stacks for an organization to build a big data application, from infrastructure/platform/ecosystem to constructional units and components. Finally, we provide some big data online resources for reference. Keywords Big data, 3V of Big data, Cloud Computing, Data Lake, Enterprise Data Centre, PaaS, IaaS, SaaS, Hadoop, Spark, HBase, Information retrieval, Solr 2.1 Introduction The ability to exploit the ever-growing amounts of business-related data will al- low to comprehend what is emerging in the world. In this context, Big Data is one of the current major buzzwords [1]. Big Data (BD) is the technical term used in reference to the vast quantity of heterogeneous datasets which are created and spread rapidly, and for which the conventional techniques used to process, analyse, retrieve, store and visualise such massive sets of data are now unsuitable and inad- equate. This can be seen in many areas such as sensor-generated data, social media, uploading and downloading of digital media.

  • Towards a Unified Ingestion-And-Storage Architecture
    Towards a Unified Ingestion-and-Storage Architecture for Stream Processing Ovidiu-Cristian Marcu∗, Alexandru Costany, Gabriel Antoniu∗, Mar´ıa S. Perez-Hern´ andez´ z, Radu Tudoranx, Stefano Bortolix and Bogdan Nicolaex ∗Inria Rennes - Bretagne Atlantique, France yIRISA / INSA Rennes, France zUniversidad Politecnica de Madrid, Spain xHuawei Germany Research Center Abstract—Big Data applications are rapidly moving from a batch-oriented execution model to a streaming execution model in order to extract value from the data in real-time. However, processing live data alone is often not enough: in many cases, such applications need to combine the live data with previously archived data to increase the quality of the extracted insights. Current streaming-oriented runtimes and middlewares are not flexible enough to deal with this trend, as they address ingestion (collection and pre-processing of data streams) and persistent storage (archival of intermediate results) using separate services. This separation often leads to I/O redundancy (e.g., write data twice to disk or transfer data twice over the network) and interference (e.g., I/O bottlenecks when collecting data streams and writing archival data simultaneously). In this position paper, we argue for a unified ingestion and storage architecture for streaming data that addresses the aforementioned challenge. We Fig. 1: The usual streaming architecture: data is first ingested and then it identify a set of constraints and benefits for such a unified model, flows through the processing layer which relies on the storage layer for storing aggregated data or for archiving streams for later usage. while highlighting the important architectural aspects required to implement it in real life.

  • Building a Scalable Distributed Data Platform Using Lambda Architecture
    Building a scalable distributed data platform using lambda architecture by DHANANJAY MEHTA B.Tech., Graphic Era University, India, 2012 A REPORT submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department Of Computer Science College Of Engineering KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2017 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. William H. Hsu Copyright Dhananjay Mehta 2017 Abstract Data is generated all the time over Internet, systems, sensors and mobile devices around us this data is often referred to as 'big data'. Tapping this data is a challenge to organiza- tions because of the nature of data i.e. velocity, volume and variety. What make handling this data a challenge? This is because traditional data platforms have been built around relational database management systems coupled with enterprise data warehouses. Legacy infrastructure is either technically incapable to scale to big data or financially infeasible. Now the question arises, how to build a system to handle the challenges of big data and cater needs of an organization? The answer is Lambda Architecture. Lambda Architecture (LA) is a generic term that is used for a scalable and fault-tolerant data processing architecture that ensure real-time processing with low latency. LA provides a general strategy to knit together all necessary tools for building a data pipeline for real- time processing of big data. LA builds a big data platform as a series of layers that combine batch and real time processing. LA comprise of three layers - Batch Layer, responsible for bulk data processing; Speed Layer, responsible for real-time processing of data streams and Serving Layer, responsible for serving queries from end users.
