  10. Trident Features • Libraries of activities, services, and workflows • Prepackaged activities and workflows out of the box and custom libraries • Registry with rich sets of workflow meta data • Versions • Workflow packages • Social annotations • (myExperiment)

  11. Trident Features • Two programming interfaces to Trident • Use Visual Studio to develop custom activities and workflows and import them to Trident • Visually Compose Workflows • No programming and scripting is required • Drag and drop a workflow or an activity • Subsections

  12. Execution Service • Local or distributed execution of workflows • HPCS cluster • Cloud services • Interactive and non-interactive execution service • Publishes events to subscriber services, such as tracking, provenance, and monitoring.

  13. Workflow Monitoring • Remote and local monitoring • Workflow processing status • Input and output parameters • Data products • Performance

  14. Management Studio • Administration of workflows and workflow scheduling • Registry management • Monitoring

  15. What is Windows Workflow? Host Process (.exe, IIS, …) • Part of Microsoft’s .Net framework 3.0, 3.5, and upcoming 4.0 • Activities • Runtime • Tooling Workflow Activity Library WF Runtime Extensions Persistence Tracking … Tooling VS Debugger VS Designer Rehosted Designer

  16. Composite Basic Windows Workflow Base Activity Library

  17. Workflow Authoring

  18. Trident Workflow Composer An End User Application for Editing, Executing, and Monitoring Scientific Workflows

  19. What Differentiates Scientific Workflow? • Composition goes through many iterations • Data flow is a first class citizen • Need an easy way to publish and share • Provenance • Runtime • Evolutionary • Adaptable to different computing environments

  20. Trident Workflow Composer Data Options & Sharing Workflow Library Composition Space Activity Library

  22. Trident Registry Flexible Data Store And Some More

  23. Trident RegistryMotivation: Why a new registry system? • Single “point of truth” of the system • Facilitates state synchronization actions • Catalog keeps track of computing resources and state • Flexible Storage • What is it? • Flexible store mechanism • Supports Microsoft and non-Microsoft store providers • Supports local, client-server and cloud architectures • Non goals • Replacement for LINQ or ER Framework • Reference Catalog • Unified view of the resources • Stores references to internal and external resources • Flexible provider mechanism to abstract access to external resources

  24. Trident RegistryRegistry Connections

  25. Trident RegistryRegistry Management

  26. Trident RegistryData Providers: Abstracting “What’s out there” • Storage providers • Provides abstraction to data structures stored in the backend • No assumptions on how data was stored and related Implemented using “verbs” and “subjects” actions • “Store object user with these properties” • “Relate this user object with this service as its owner” • “Delete namespace object” • Data abstraction layer and code generation • C# generated code provides shield and programming API • C# code generator generates SQL catalog for perfect datacode match

  27. Trident RegistryData Providers: Abstracting “What’s out there” • Creating new providers • Why would I create a new storage provider? • Enable Trident to store / retrieve state from other platforms • Enable Trident to store / retrieve state on other systems • Enhance existing providers with new features and abstractions • What it takes to create a new provider • Create a new assembly (or add to an existing provider assembly) • Create a new class derived from Microsoft.Research.eResearch.Connection • Drop our new DLL into Trident folder

  28. Creating a new Registry Provider DEMO

  29. Trident RegistryStorage vs References • Use Cases • Object Tracking • Data and Process Discovery • All workflow aspects are exposed in the storage schema • Allows rich query of data, activities, parameters, etc • Data Providers • Abstraction layer to external references (similar to registry data storage) • Enables user applications to benefit from unified model • Simplifies development • Enables fault tolerance for external resource sources • Not every workflow need to worry about these details • All data provider knowledge resides in the registry • Pluggable and flexible

  30. Trident RegistryProvider API • Managed (.NET) API • Library of choice for interacting with Trident Registry • Simplifies lots of data complexity • Abstracts verbs and actions into an object model • Access to all Trident Registry objects and relations • No need for servers and services to operate (access the data backend directly) • Faster, no extra hops. Direct data access. Native Managed API API • Native API • Useful for non-managed applications and systems integration • Similar to Managed (.NET) API in terms of performance and requirements • But more limited (not a 100% feature match right now) Managed Native • Web Services API • Recommended for non-Microsoft platform integration, e.g. Linux and Mac OS • Requires a IIS web server and service configured • Greater control over data and process, higher data security • Only core objects and relationships are exposed right now • Extra parsing and processing hop. Need to consider cluster and load and balancing solutions for high-performance scenarios Web Services Web Services

  31. Trident Blackboard A Distributed Eventing Model For Workflow

  32. The Workflow Runtimeand Tracking Services • WF workflows launch in a runtime context • Runtime thread controls WF related threads • Execution thread • Built-in services • Custom services • Built-in services track workflow execution • Workflow events • Individual activity events • Data updates

  33. Trident Blackboard • A distributed Pub/Sub model for workflow eventing • Why? • Tracking information needs to be shared across compute nodes • Workflows are evolutionary and thus messengers require a pluggable interface • Large message volume means that the message broker needs to be light-weight and fast

  34. The Blackboard Message • Titled name/value pair collection • All values are strings • Title and names can resolve against an ontology Structure Example ‘Collection Title’ ‘WF Runtime Event’ ‘name 1’ ‘name 2’ ‘name 3’ ‘value 1’ ‘value 2’ ‘value 3’ ‘Type’ ‘Job ID’ ‘Activity ID’ ‘Event Order’ ‘Activity Started’ ‘{ GUID }’ ‘NetCDF Reader’ ‘5’
