Join Paul Ramirez and Cameron Goodale from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory as they unveil RADiX, a tool designed to streamline the deployment and management of Apache OODT (Object Oriented Data Technology). This presentation covers the challenges faced with OODT and how RADiX addresses these concerns, focusing on reducing ramp-up time, simplifying configuration, and enhancing focus on data management. Learn about the technical details, user experiences, and how RADiX empowers developers to leverage OODT for effective geospatial data visualization and management.

HOW TO: Spin Up Apache OODT Faster with RADiX Paul Ramirez & Cameron Goodale NASA – Jet Propulsion LaboratoryNovember 9th, 2011
Our Background • Cameron Goodale • NASA – Jet Propulsion Laboratory (6 years) • Software Engineer • Your area of interest • Geospatial / Data Visualization • Python • Working on my Road Racing License • Paul Ramirez • NASA – Jet Propulsion Laboratory (10 years) • Software Engineer • Your area of interest • Geospatial • Search • Java • My family (wife, son, 2 dogs)
Roadmap • Apache OODT – Brief Intro • Working With OODT • What is RADiX • Technical Details • RADiX your next OODT Deployment
Apache OODT • Data Management System (DMS) Framework • History at JPL • Medical, Astronomy, Climate Research, etc… • Collection of Loosely Coupled Components • Crawler • File Manager • Workflow • Driven by Metadata and Product Types
Working With OODT Now • Download the source and build • Grab one of the component distribution tarballs • Install and Configure • Repeat for each component you want • For our webapps grab the war and configure • User ensures that configuration matches across components • Launch each of the components individually
Using OODT • Crawler Actions • Metadata Extractors • Versioners • Tasks • Configuration • Crawler Policy • FileManager Policy • Workflow Policy • PGE (Product Generation Executive) Configuration
RADiX What and Why • Distribution of Apache OODT • Define deployment and development • Reduce ramp up time • Eliminate confusion with documentation • Eliminate some configuration • Focus on data management • Focus on component extensions • Bored of repeating • Create shared experience
RADiX Technical Details • Uses Apache Maven 2.2 • Maven Archetype • Used to drive creation of a template OODT project • Resultant project can be used for development • Maven Assembly Descriptor
OODT RADiX in Action % wget http://www.apache.org/dist/oodt/radix-0.4.tgz % tar –xzvf radix-0.4.tgz % export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/radix % oodt-radix my-oodt-dmsmy.package.name % ./deploy/bin/oodt_pcsstart % ls deploy mvn-repo my-oodt-dms
What did that give me? • Deployment of OODT • Sample configuration to show things in action • Development structure that you can check in • That’s it for now
Closing Remarks • Available in OODT 0.4 • Worked under OODT-140 • https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OODT/RADiX+Powered+By+OODT • Future Work • Screencasts • Integrate more components • More documentation and links to existing • Promote deploying with RADiX
