Eschewing overly verbose static types, OODT embraces Python to see what happens.
Apache OODT Agility is a re-implementation of the OODT Grid Components in Python, with a focus on high performance in the face of gargantuan data sets as well as accelerated development and integration into existing systems.
OODT Agility recasts profile, product, and query services for:
- Extreme performance by streaming instead of packetizing data
- Ability to handle enormous data sets through intelligent indexing
- Simplified and high-speed integration into existing systems leveraging the dynamic nature of Python
All the while, OODT Agility is compatible with existing Java-based OODT systems.
Does Anyone Seriously Use It?
OODT Agility is actively running in important applications, including:
- The Planetary Data Access Protocol, a project of the International Planetary Data Alliance
- NASA's Planetary Data System
- Early Detection Research Network
