3 Outline Workflow Management Systems overview A practical approach for real workflows Implementation issues A case study: JDL to GWorkflowDL conversion

4 Workflow Management Systems Overview A lot of interest around WfMSs exist Thanks to workflows, the processes' business logic can be easily expressed using graphs Appealing for users with limited programming skills However, the lack of a recognized standard causes incompatibility among WfMSs: several languages for workflow description exist: Based on different modeling formalisms (DAGs, Petri Nets, Pi Calculus...);

5 Problems in Workflow Management The choice of a WfMS usually binds users to a specific workflow language Change of the WfMS has a high cost: Legacy workflows must be rewritten. Interoperability among WfMSs is still an open issue Difficulty to manage large, complex and real life scientific processes

6 Outline Workflow Management Systems overview A practical approach for real workflows Implementation issues A case study: JDL to GWorkflowDL conversion

7 A practical approach for real workflows Introducing a WfMS: Petri Nets based Formal semantics Turing complete (deals with Workflow Patterns) Build time analysis tools (reachability, boundedness...) Independent from the underlying Grid middleware Multi language: GWorkflowDL used as internal representation Deals with interoperability

8 The WfMS Architecture Aims at language independence Layered architecture Workflow Management System Workflow Gateway Workflow Engine Grid Abstraction Layer Grid Middleware/s Execution nodes Storage nodes Language Interoperability JDL, GworkflowDL, BPEL Engine Interoperability Aims at Grid middleware independence

9 Grid Abstraction Layer Abstracts the basic functions of a Grid providing portability of the Workflow engine over different Grid middlewares Grid Abstraction Layer Dispatcher Data Transfer Dispatcher: Job submission/cancellation Reservation Data Transfer: Move data between Grid nodes Observer: Monitor submitted job status Reservation: Resource reservation Observer

10 Workflow Gateway Provides language and model converters in order to achieve compatibility with legacy workflows and legacy WfMSs Parser: Extracts the model from a workflow description Workflow Gateway Dag Pi Calculus Model Translator Parser Compiler BPEL glite (classad) JSDL Compiler: Produces a workflow representation using a target language (JDL, GWorkflowDL, BPEL, )

11 Language Interoperability The Gateway solves some interoperability issues in workflow management: Part of a workflow (or a sub workflow) can be translated and successively delegated to a thirdparty WfMS Legacy workflows can be executed on our WfMS without being rewritten Every process can be expressed in terms of a Petri Net (Turing complete)

12 The Workflow Engine Our goal is to keep the engine as simple as possible and concentrate on interoperability issues Main characteristics Petri Net base Micro Kernel architecture: aims at modularity and extendibility Distributed

13 Outline Workflow Management Systems overview A practical approach for real workflows Implementation issues A case study: JDL to GWorkflowDL conversion

14 EGEE/gLite as a Grid Middleware Choice of EGEE/gLite middleware because of: Services maturity Reliability Large adoption Job management is done by the Workload Management System (WMS) Job monitoring is done by the Logging and Bookkeeping Service (LB)

15 Project Goal: A WfMS over the WMS The practical outcome of our work is to build a WfMS relying on the WMS + LB Both WMS and LB provide a Web Service interface simplify interaction with Grid services

16 WfMS Deploy (1/2) WfMS running on a dedicated server: Client sends the workflow description to the server; WfMS server manages workflows execution; Client Workflow running instance Monitoring WFMS Server Workflow Description Grid Submitted Jobs Interface to the Grid is provided by the WMS API.

17 WfMS Deploy (2/2) WfMS running as a Grid job: Client submits a workflow to the Grid via the WMS and monitors it via the LB The WfMS ends up running on a Grid node The WfMS instance submits workflow tasks to the Grid using the WMS and monitors them via the LB Client Monitoring Workflow Description submit Grid WFMS running instances Taking full advantage from the Grid resources and facilities (e.g. checkpointing)

18 Outline Workflow Management Systems overview A practical approach for real workflows Implementation issues A case study: JDL to GWorkflowDL conversion

19 The Job Description Language (JDL) The Job Description Language describes a job to be execution on the Grid The JDL adopted within the glite middleware is based upon Condor's Classified Advertisements (ClassAds) record like structure composed of a finite number of attributes separated by semi colon (;) Attribute = Value;

20 A JDL DAG Workflow JDL allows workflow (DAG based) definition: [ ] Type = dag ; [... ] nodes = [ father = [... ]; son1 = [... ]; son2 = [... ]; final = [... ]; dependencies = { {father, {son1, son2}}, ]; }; {son1, final}, {son2, final} Dependencies JDL parser + Model extractor son1 DAG Model father final son2 Job

21 DAGs in glite Many legacy workflows expressed in JDL exist; JDL workflows are managed by the Condor DAG Manager (DAGMan): Acts as a Meta Scheduler for Condor jobs Submits job respecting their inter dependencies In case of job failure, DAGMan continues until it can no longer make progress.

22 DAG -> Petri Net The current DAG model is very limited, e.g. lack of error handling lack of task types other than computation DAGs can be easily described using Petri Nets a DAG node can be represented by a Petri Net transition the flow of data among DAG nodes is modeled using data tokens

23 DAG -> Petri Net Petri Net Model DAG Model init father father P1 P2 son1 son2 son1 son2 final DAG to Petri Net Model Converter P3 final P4 end

24 Petri Net -> GWorkflowDL Petri Net Model init father P1 P2 son1 son2 P3 P4 final end <workflow [...]> <place ID= init /> <place ID= P1 /> <place ID= P2 /> [...] Compiler <place ID= end /> <transition ID= father > <inputplace placeid= init /> <outputplace placeid= P1 /> <outputplace placeid= P2 /> <operation /> </transition> [...] </workflow> DEMO

25 From abstract to concrete workflow (1/4) The workflow description needs a refinement process in order to perform concrete task operations In the case of the glite middleware task execution is asynchronous The WMS serves job submission request returning an ID that identifies the job in its task queue The ID is used to query (or register for notifications by) the LB service until task termination (or failure)

26 From abstract to concrete workflow (2/4) Task Execution P1 InputSandbox jdl jobid P1 P1 1 JobExecute P1 2 JobStart P1 3 JobRegister data movement JobExecute Recovery Strategy if(result.fail) result P1 4 P2 P2 P1 5 wait_for_termination data movement if(result.success)

27 From abstract to concrete workflow (3/4) Waits until the task is done (or failed) using polling: getjobstate() operation of the LB service. wait_for_termination (polling) if(s.job_done s.job_fail) P1 3 jobid N sec getjobstate P1 3 1 s if(s.job_running) P1 4

28 From abstract to concrete workflow (4/4) Same sub workflow implementation using notifications; wait_for_termination (notify) P1 3 P1 3 jobid result P1 4 N sec do_polling

29 Conclusions and Future Work Workflow Gateway as a standalone component Other WfMS can easily take advantage from languages conversions customizable target language depending on the underlying WfMS A lightweight WfMS with basic functionalities solves low level aspects of workflow management Investigate WfMSs engine interoperability
