Discussing Biomedical Data Management as a Service
SESSION: Discussing Biomedical Data Management as a Service
EVENT TYPE: Birds of a Feather
SESSION LEADER(S): Ian M. Foster, Raimond L. Winslow, Ravi K. Madduri
ROOM: 250-C
ABSTRACT: The biomedical community needs software tools for managing diverse types of biomedical data. The vast majority of biomedical studies lack IT support, and therefore study sites are not able to install and operate complex software applications on their own. The Cardiovascular Research Grid (CVRG) has therefore moved towards the Software-as-a-Service approach, delivering powerful data management and analysis tools to our users that are accessed through the web browser. Through this Bird-of-a-Feather session, the CVRG team would like to discuss topics of security, data sharing and data integration. We would like to share what we have learned and hear community ideas.
