Project Name: Data preservation and analysis

Project Description:
Preservation Services

The PJAS would work in the Digital Repositories section of the IT Dept CDA group, which develops and operates a variety of open data and publication repositories.

The PJAS will develop containerised re-run services for the Analysis Preservation Portal (APP) and the Open Data Portal (ODP). This work would involve drawing together and integrating various pilot threads that are currently ongoing with different actors:
- Working with LHC experiments to ingest Docker images and contextualised Virtual Machines of live analysis environments
- Ingesting, storing and documenting the analyses in the APP
- Establishing easy access mechanisms for the analyses to
operate on data stored in the APP and the ODP
- Developing a service based on IT-CM Magnum that
instantiates the preserved analysis image or VM, accesses the APP/ODP data, reruns the analysis with possibly modified configuration parameters, and returns the results to the user

Required Skills:
Experience with web development frameworks, Python, jQuery, HTML/CSS, SQL.

The knowledge of Flask, AngularJS, Elasticsearch is an advantage.

Starting date: To be agreed during interview.

Candidates will be selected through a video interview and if required a face-to-face interview will be conducted.

Filiation: Compute & Monitoring group.

The project will involve the large scale deployment of this component across the 17,000 virtual machines in the cloud, with minimal downtime, along with the evaluation of technologies to provide project specific networks for virtual machines.

Required Skills:
Linux Python

Desirable: Virtualisation (e.g. KVM) Cloud (e.g. OpenStack) DevOps (e.g. Puppet, Git)

Starting date: To be agreed during interview.

Candidates will be selected through a video interview and if required a face-to-face interview will be conducted.

Filiation: Compute & Monitoring group, Infrastructure Services.

Project Name: Compute Efficiency Framework.

Project Description:

The project will build on the compute accounting and analysis activity within IT-CM, with aim of using IT's analytics and dashboard machinery (Hadoop/Spark/ES/Kibana) to reliably deliver compute and cloud accounting and efficiency for WLCG and for local analysis.

The project will also integrate experiment job performance data to detect passively drops in node performance (both locally and external cloud) which can then be used to automatically highlight node or other operational issue, potentially scheduling via HTCondor fast benchmarks to re-verify compliance to the expected service level.

This, together with an operational efficiency dashboard, should give us immediate indication of individual node issues, global effects, such as configuration modifications or experiment specific changes such as high memory with new releases.

Required Skills:
Python Linux

Desirable: ElasticSearch, Kibana, Spark

Starting date: To be agreed during interview.

Candidates will be selected through a video interview and if required a face-to-face interview will be conducted.

Filiation: Compute & Monitoring group, Monitoring & Messaging section.

Project Name: Aggregation and correlation for alarms and diagnostics.

Project Description:

Currently monitoring data from the IT groups and outside is collected but the real value is not realised as it could be used more effectively for understanding the overall behaviour, dependencies and reason of problems and failures.

Operational costs will be reduced by automating the aggregation and correlation of monitoring data across different services. This process will benefit from programmatically aggregating and correlating fine-grained information into precise alarms and diagnostics. For instance, using the WLCG metrics, a site issue root cause can be determined between network link issues, data contention or job failures in real time. Another example would be distinguishing power, switch, hypervisor or VM issues and routing the ticket to the correct destination while providing notifications to the service managers affected by the problem. Similar aggregation operations could be performed to gather metrics for particular sets of jobs based on their hardware configurations.

In order to achieve these improvements we need to coordinate the collection of key metrics from different IT services into a common architecture and apply established techniques and tools (e.g. Hadoop/Spark) for stream analysis of monitoring data. The project would define such common framework, help all IT groups to provide the relevant data, and support the common implementation using the standard building blocks of the monitoring architecture.

Required Skills:
Linux Scripting

Desirable: Hadoop, Spark

Starting date: To be agreed during interview.

Candidates will be selected through a video interview and if required a face-to-face interview will be conducted.

Project Description:

The selected candidate will work with the team in the IT Department’s Communication Systems Group that is responsible for fixed, mobile and radio telephony and, in addition to helping to support the Asterisk-based PABX, will help implement and deploy high-level services on top of the Asterisk infrastructure to support, for example, voice recording systems, call logs, switchboard application and call centres---including ones with critical importance, such as the one for CERN’s on-site Fire Brigade.
