What is OGSA-DAI?
It is a project:
– OGSA Data Access and Integration: funded by the UK
eScience Grid Core Programme
It is a vision:
– From simple database access to truly virtualised data
resources
It is a standard:
– The GridDataService Specification from the Data Access and
Integration Working Group (DAIS-WG) of the Global Grid
Forum (GGF)
It is software that you can use:
– Current version is R2.5
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
OGSA-DAI Objective
To define:
–
–
–
–
–
open standards and
open source based
uniform service interfaces
for accessing heterogeneous data sources
within the Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA) framework
Why?
– Because we are increasingly wanting to integrate different data
sources from different organisations together
– The Grid, and OGSA, appears to provide a framework for
producing software to do this

DAIS WG
GridDatabaseService Specification
–
–
–
–
–
DAIS WG of the GGF
Aim to produce a V1.0 specification by early 2004
Defines an interface for a GridDatabaseService
May contributors, not just OGSA-DAI Project
OGSA-DAI (the software) seeks to be a reference
implementation of this standard
• But does not necessarily track it exactly just now
– Requirements and Overview Informational documents also
published
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
The OGSA-DAI Approach
Reuse existing technologies and standards
– OGSA, Query languages, Java, transport
Three key services:
– GridDataService
– GridDataServiceFactory
– DAIServiceGroupRegistry
Benefits:
–
–
–
–
–
Location independence
Hides heterogeneity
Scalable
Flexible
Dynamic

DAISGR
OGSA-DAI To Date
Assuming that OGSA becomes the standard
framework
– Have adopted the OGSA approach
Have first concentrated on data access
– Released software has only limited data integration so far
– Distributed query processor prototype due in July
Implementation provides focus on basic
functionality first
– But architecturally we have tried to answer many pertinent
questions
– Functionality will increase over subsequent releases
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
GDS in action
1a. Request to
Registry for
sources of data
about “x”
Analyst
3c. Results of
query returned to
client as XML
SOAP/HTTP
Registry
DAISGR
service creation
1b. Registry
responds
2a. Request to Factory for access to
with
database
Factory
handle
2c. Factory returns
handle of GDS to client
Factory
GDSF
2b. Factory creates GridDataService
to manage access
3a. Client queries GDS with
SQL, XPath, XQuery etc
OR
3d. Results of query delivered to
consumer as XML
Grid Data
Service
GDS
3b. GDS interacts with
database
Consumer
API interactions
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
Database
(Xindice
MySQL
Oracle
DB2)
Activities
OGSA-DAI is structured around the concept of
activities
This framework allows new functionality to be
added easily
Three types of activity at present:
– statement (e.g. SQLQuery, Xupdate)
– transformation (e.g. XSL translation, compression)
– delivery (e.g. GridFTP)
OGSA-DAI provides implementations of
common functionality, others can extend
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
Documents
Accessing a Grid Data Resource is done using
Documents
<gridDataServicePerform>
– caveat: this may change
A document allows you to:
– define parameters
– execute activities
– deliver results
<request name=“myRequest”>
<parameter name=“idname”>
<value name=“idvalue”>10</value>
</parameter>
<sqlQueryStatement name=“myStatement”>
<sqlParameter position=“1” from=“idvalue”/>
<expression>
SELECT * FROM littleblackbook WHERE id=?
</expression>
<webRowSetStream name=“statementresult”/>
</sqlQueryStatement>
Written in XML,
<deliverToResponse name=“d1”>
normally used by a client.
<fromLocal from=“statementresult”/>
</deliverToResponse>
</request>
</gridDataServicePerform>

Distributed Query Service
A higher level service:
– Extension of Polar* query processor, partitions and schedules
queries
– Sits on top of OGSA and OGSA-DAI
Defines new portTypes and services
– GridDistributedQuery(GDQ) PortType
– GridDistributedQueryService(GDQS) – wraps Polar*
– GridQueryEvaluatorService(GQES) – perform subqueries
Currently based on OGSA-DAI Release 1.5
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
DQS Architecture
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
DQP in action
http://www.ogsadai.org.uk
DQS: the future
The GridDistributedQueryService
– is an example of a higher level data integration service which utilises
OGSA-DAI core services
– Assumes that GDSF, GDQS Factory and client live in different
containers
– Really requires a well-defined meta-model for the physical schema of
a database
• Being partially addressed in DAIS WG
– Shows how a GDS can be both client and service
• Service hierarchy and composition
DAIT (proposed follow-on to OGSA-DAI) would
produce a robust reference implementation of the DQP
components

ODD Genes
OGSA-DAI used to query gene expression
data resources at GTI and HGU
– One data resource: low spatial resolution, high gene resolution
– Other resource: high spatial resolution, low gene resolution
– Query one database and use data to find correct data resource
to run more detailed query and produce visualisation
– Simple example of data integration at work
