摘要:

我们介绍SciServer,一个由约翰霍普金斯大学数据密集型工程与科学研究所构建和支持的科学平台。SciServer建立在SkyServer服务器端工具系统的基础上,并对其进行了扩展,SkyServer系统将天文学社区引入了SQL(结构化查询语言),并一直向公众提供斯隆数字巡天目录数据。SciServer使用基于Docker/VM的架构,在各种环境中提供交互式和批处理模式的服务器端分析,包括Python和R等脚本语言,除了传统的基于SQL的数据分析之外,还包括RStudio和命令行。用户可以访问私有文件存储以及个人SQL数据库空间。一个灵活的资源访问控制系统允许用户与协作者共享他们的资源,这一功能在课堂环境中也非常有用。所有这些服务都封装在一层REST API中,构成了一个可扩展的协作数据驱动的科学平台,对天文学以外的科学学科具有吸引力。

英文摘要:

We present SciServer, a science platform built and supported by the Institute for Data Intensive Engineering and Science at the Johns Hopkins University. SciServer builds upon and extends the SkyServer system of server-side tools that introduced the astronomical community to SQL (Structured Query Language) and has been serving the Sloan Digital Sky Survey catalog data to the public. SciServer uses a Docker/VM based architecture to provide interactive and batch mode server-side analysis with scripting languages like Python and R in various environments including Jupyter (notebooks), RStudio and command-line in addition to traditional SQL-based data analysis. Users have access to private file storage as well as personal SQL database space. A flexible resource access control system allows users to share their resources with collaborators, a feature that has also been very useful in classroom environments. All these services, wrapped in a layer of REST APIs, constitute a scalable collaborative data-driven science platform that is attractive to science disciplines beyond astronomy.
