Systems and methods provide a system that gathers information about data as it progresses through data processing pipelines of data analysis projects. The data analytics system derives value indicators and implicit metadata from the data processing pipelines. For example, the data analytics system may derive value indicators and implicit metadata from data-related products themselves, semantic analysis of the code/processing steps used to process the data-related products, the structure of data processing pipelines, and human behavior related to production and usage of data-related products. Once a new data analysis project is initiated, the data analytics system gathers parameters and characteristics about the new data analysis project and references the value indicators and implicit metadata to recommend useful processing steps, datasets, and/or other data-related products for the new data analysis project.

A source system generates snapshots of collected data. The snapshots have respective associated time references. Responsive to a request from a target system for data collected over a time interval, the source system generates a subset of the data collected by determining a start snapshot and an end snapshot. The start snapshot and the end snapshot are determined as a pair of snapshots that have respective associated time references that are most closely spaced and are inclusive of the time interval. The source system determines a difference in the data included in the end snapshot and the start snapshot and provides the subset of the data as the difference in the data included in the end snapshot and the start snapshot.

Data transfer using snapshot differencing from edge system to core system

Connection profiles are created and stored. The connection profiles are for connections for sources to connect to a network. The connection profiles identify network attributes and server attributes for the connections and each connection profile includes a status of available or subscribed. A connection profile is assigned to a requested connection for a source. The source is authenticated using a credential, and server attributes from the connection profile are sent to the source to configure the source to use the connection.

Source configuration based on connection profile

A network device includes multiple ports for accepting network connections, at least one memory for storing a fail-safe device configuration, a normal operational device configuration and one or more triggering events, and one or more processors connected to the memory for controlling the operation of the network device. The processor causes the network device to operate according to the fail-safe configuration in response to the occurrence of a triggering event.

Connection profiles are created and stored. The connection profiles are for connections for sources to connect to a network. The connection profiles identify network attributes for the connections and each connection profile includes a status of available or subscribed. A connection profile is assigned to a requested connection for a source. The network attributes for the assigned connection are sent to an edge switch for the source to configure the edge switch to accept traffic for the source.

Network edge switch configuration based on connection profile

Connections for sources to connect to a network are managed by storing connection profiles identifying network attributes for the connections. Each connection profile includes a status of available or subscribed. Requests for connections are received. If a stored connection profile is available that matches the request, the connection for the matching connection profile is assigned to the source.
