Abstract: |
Data management systems for new missions are often the end of the
chain for design and an area that was in earlier days
underestimated. Thanks to the visionaries of our times and measurable
increases in science user bandwidth, the value of building a robust
archive system is now seen to provide a critical capability for
producing newer and greater science. Throughout the astronomical
community, teams of scientists and engineers are focusing on how we
can build optimized architectures to support multiple missions, both
space-based and ground, local and distributed. At Space Telescope
Science Institute, such a team is using the successful foundation of
the Hubble Space Telescope archive, incorporating lessons learned into
the design and development of the James Webb Space Telescope data
management systems, and unifying the MAST public science archive with
the operational mission archives. The process of optimizing the
architecture components combine the resource efficiency of an internal
storage cloud while increasingly leveraging collaborative efforts for
shared community development of archive and data processing
technology, such as the standard protocols and data models developed
by the international Virtual Observatory. |
