In this work we present kiwiPy, a Python library designed to support robust message based communication for high-throughput, big-data, applications while being general enough to be useful wherever high-volumes of messages need to be communicated in a predictable manner. KiwiPy relies on the RabbitMQ protocol, an industry standard message broker, while providing a simple and intuitive interface that can be used in both multithreaded and coroutine based applications. To demonstrate some of kiwiPys functionality we give examples from AiiDA, a high-throughput simulation platform, where kiwiPy is used as a key component of the workflow engine.

Over the last two decades, the field of computational science has seen a dramatic shift towards incorporating high-throughput computation and big-data analysis as fundamental pillars of the scientific discovery process. This has necessitated the deve
lopment of tools and techniques to deal with the generation, storage and processing of large amounts of data. In this work we present an in-depth look at the workflow engine powering AiiDA, a widely adopted, highly flexible and database-backed informatics infrastructure with an emphasis on data reproducibility. We detail many of the design choices that were made which were informed by several important goals: the ability to scale from running on individual laptops up to high-performance supercomputers, managing jobs with runtimes spanning from fractions of a second to weeks and scaling up to thousands of jobs concurrently, and all this while maximising robustness. In short, AiiDA aims to be a Swiss army knife for high-throughput computational science. As well as the architecture, we outline important API design choices made to give workflow writers a great deal of liberty whilst guiding them towards writing robust and modular workflows, ultimately enabling them to encode their scientific knowledge to the benefit of the wider scientific community.
The ever-growing availability of computing power and the sustained development of advanced computational methods have contributed much to recent scientific progress. These developments present new challenges driven by the sheer amount of calculations
and data to manage. Next-generation exascale supercomputers will harden these challenges, such that automated and scalable solutions become crucial. In recent years, we have been developing AiiDA (http://www.aiida.net), a robust open-source high-throughput infrastructure addressing the challenges arising from the needs of automated workflow management and data provenance recording. Here, we introduce developments and capabilities required to reach sustained performance, with AiiDA supporting throughputs of tens of thousands processes/hour, while automatically preserving and storing the full data provenance in a relational database making it queryable and traversable, thus enabling high-performance data analytics. AiiDAs workflow language provides advanced automation, error handling features and a flexible plugin model to allow interfacing with any simulation software. The associated plugin registry enables seamless sharing of extensions, empowering a vibrant user community dedicated to making simulations more robust, user-friendly and reproducible.
New techniques in X-ray scattering science experiments produce large data sets that can require millions of high-performance processing hours per week of computation for analysis. In such applications, data is typically moved from X-ray detectors to
a large parallel file system shared by all nodes of a petascale supercomputer and then is read repeatedly as different science application tasks proceed. However, this straightforward implementation causes significant contention in the file system. We propose an alternative approach in which data is instead staged into and cached in compute node memory for extended periods, during which time various processing tasks may efficiently access it. We describe here such a big data staging framework, based on MPI-IO and the Swift parallel scripting language. We discuss a range of large-scale data management issues involved in X-ray scattering science and measure the performance benefits of the new staging framework for high-energy diffraction microscopy, an important emerging application in data-intensive X-ray scattering. We show that our framework accelerates scientific processing turnaround from three months to under 10 minutes, and that our I/O technique reduces input overheads by a factor of 5 on 8K Blue Gene/Q nodes.
Background: Metabolomics datasets are becoming increasingly large and complex, with multiple types of algorithms and workflows needed to process and analyse the data. A cloud infrastructure with portable software tools can provide much needed resourc
es enabling faster processing of much larger datasets than would be possible at any individual lab. The PhenoMeNal project has developed such an infrastructure, allowing users to run analyses on local or commercial cloud platforms. We have examined the computational scaling behaviour of the PhenoMeNal platform using four different implementations across 1-1000 virtual CPUs using two common metabolomics tools. Results: Our results show that data which takes up to 4 days to process on a standard desktop computer can be processed in just 10 min on the largest cluster. Improved runtimes come at the cost of decreased efficiency, with all platforms falling below 80% efficiency above approximately 1/3 of the maximum number of vCPUs. An economic analysis revealed that running on large scale cloud platforms is cost effective compared to traditional desktop systems. Conclusions: Overall, cloud implementations of PhenoMeNal show excellent scalability for standard metabolomics computing tasks on a range of platforms, making them a compelling choice for research computing in metabolomics.
Data-intensive applications are becoming commonplace in all science disciplines. They are comprised of a rich set of sub-domains such as data engineering, deep learning, and machine learning. These applications are built around efficient data abstrac
tions and operators that suit the applications of different domains. Often lack of a clear definition of data structures and operators in the field has led to other implementations that do not work well together. The HPTMT architecture that we proposed recently, identifies a set of data structures, operators, and an execution model for creating rich data applications that links all aspects of data engineering and data science together efficiently. This paper elaborates and illustrates this architecture using an end-to-end application with deep learning and data engineering parts working together.
