Taverna's concern is not as much job >> coordination, but more of a data flow between services. Airavata's >> XBaya Workflow Suite can export workflows in Taverna 1 format SCUFL, >> but could be updated to work with Taverna 3's SCUFL2 format. >> >> Apache ODE https://ode.apache.org/ is a WS-BPEL workflow engine. BPEL >> as a workflow language is quite verbose compared to dataflow languages >> like Taverna, and is additionally bound to a particular protocol >> (SOAP). Nevertheless, a sub-section of Taverna workflows could in >> theory run on the Apache ODE engine - and the Taverna 3 Platform API >> has facilities for plugging in alternative workflow engines. We have >> previously considered Apache Hadoop as one such alternate engine for >> executing a different subset of workflows with local command line >> tools. >> >> Apache Storm http://storm.incubator.apache.org/ is a distributed >> realtime computation framework. Experiments are under development to >> use Taverna as a front-end for creating Apache Storm workflows - >> http://markmail.org/message/zg5ylo2aucpwfc5j >> >> Apache has several popular frameworks for building REST/SOAP web >> services (Apache CXF, Apache Clerezza), data services (Apache Jena, >> Apache Hive, Apache CouchDB) and specific workflow engines (Apache >> Oozie for Hadoop, Apache ODE for WS-BPEL). Taverna as a general REST >> and SOAP service client can be used for combining, testing and >> demonstrating such services. >> >> >> ## A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand >> >> Taverna is a long-running project (since 2003) with an existing user- >> and developer base across the academic world.
