There are significant number of data (and compute) intensive projects and initiatives of National, regional and international consequence hosted or driven in Africa – including in the areas of earth and spaces sciences – for example, The Square Kilometre. In this area, Africa will host the largest high resolution radio telescope to do fundamental Astrophysiscs science as the continent has...
Structured data storage technologies evolve very rapidly in the IT world, driven by BigData projects. LHC experiments, and ATLAS in particular, select and use these technologies to store a wealth of metadata, balancing the performance for a given set of use cases with the availability, ease of use and of getting support, and stability of the product. We definitely and definitively moved from...
