There is a growing global need for data commons and more general data infrastructure to support data driven challenges, including effectively transforming data, building complex models, and supporting sophisticated visualizations. This session will discuss practical experiences developing and operating data commons and other data types of high performance data infrastructure. This is a joint BOF between the Open Commons Consortium (OCC), the Research Data Alliance (RDA), and the Center for Data Intensive Science (CDIS), University of Chicago.
