Extensible efficient handling of metadata for e-Science

Extensible efficient handling of metadata for e-Science
Extensible efficient handling of metadata for e-Science
The Geodise data management platform provides a Grid-enabled distributed file and data archive and enables users to annotate their data with rich descriptive metadata in the form of XML. We present a process model for the evolution of the Geodise data management system from a free and flexible repository to a structured scalable relational database for production purposes. The model is designed to aid scientists and engineers to develop XML Schemas describing their metadata requirement which can be registered in the XML-enabled database to provide a scalable back-end solution without any impact to the existing client side application.

Abstract

The Geodise data management platform provides a Grid-enabled distributed file and data archive and enables users to annotate their data with rich descriptive metadata in the form of XML. We present a process model for the evolution of the Geodise data management system from a free and flexible repository to a structured scalable relational database for production purposes. The model is designed to aid scientists and engineers to develop XML Schemas describing their metadata requirement which can be registered in the XML-enabled database to provide a scalable back-end solution without any impact to the existing client side application.
