ATDM Data Management FY2015: Data Warehouse Progress Report

Ulmer, Craig D.; Fabian, Nathan D.; Kordenbrock, Todd H.; Mukherjee, Shyamali M.; Oldfield, Ron A.; Templet, Gary J.

The Advanced Technology Development and Mitigation (ATDM) program at Sandia National Laboratories is a new effort to build next-generation simulation codes that will map well to upcoming exascale computing platforms. Rather than follow traditional single- program, multiple data (SPMD) programming techniques, ATDM is developing applications in an asynchronous many task (AMT) form that describes work as a graph of tasks that have data dependencies. The data management team is focused on developing a data warehouse for ATDM that will enable tasks to store and exchange data objects efficiently. This report summarizes the data management teams efforts during FY15, and documents: (1) an initial API and implementation for the data warehouses key/value store, (2) API requirements for use with ATDMs runtime, (3) initial requirements for storing ATDM-specific data, and (4) the current organization of software components that will be used by the data warehouse.
