Abstract: The interest in grid-databases integration has been steadily increasing in recent years and several projects provided different grid middleware components or tools trying to face this challenge. Among them the Grid Data Source Engine is offering native access to relational and non-relational data sources in a grid environment. In this paper we present its asynchronous query mechanism and we focus on the ability of this GSI/VOMS based middleware component to be integrated in workflow management systems.

Grid and Databases: BaSTI as a Practical Integration Example
Giuliano Taffoni,Santi Cassisi,P. Manzato,Marco Molinaro,Fabio Pasian,Adriano Pietrinferni,Maurizio Salaris,Claudio Vuerli +7 more
TL;DR: The successful implementation of the EGEE Grid infrastructure demonstrates that the “gridification” of stellar evolution code is not only possible but also even extremely convenient in terms of data processing speed and data sharing, and it can be a valuable instrument to support Astrophysical research.

TL;DR: The middleware (gLite) and services deployed on the EGEE Grid infrastructure are described and how applications can interface to them are explained.
The AMGA Metadata Service
TL;DR: The AMGA metadata catalogue, which was developed as part of the EGEE (enabling Grids for EsciencE) project’s gLite Grid middleware, provides access to meta data for files stored on the Grid, as well as a simplified general access to relational data stored in database systems.

GDSE: a new data source oriented computing element for grid
Edgardo Ambrosi,Antonia Ghiselli,Giuliano Taffoni +2 more
- 14 Feb 2006
TL;DR: A new Grid element is defined that enables the access to a Data Source Engine and a data Source, totally integrated with the Grid Monitoring and Discovery System and Resource Broker, and argues that a Data source Engine is a valid instance for a Grid computing model.
