Abstract
Systems and methods for authoring workflows for processing data from a large-scale dataset include defining a metadata schema for the large-scale dataset, and receiving user input defining a workflow as a plurality of operations to be performed on the data. Each of the operations includes input metadata formatted according to the metadata schema. The input metadata describes input data to be processed by the operation and identifying a location for the input data in the data storage system, programmed instructions for performing an atomic operation on the input data to generate output data; and output metadata formatted according to the metadata schema. The output metadata describes the output data and identifying a location for the output data in the data storage system.
