Big Data Standards priorities, BDVA Workshops

November 23, 2017 - 11:00 - 12.30

Standardisation is a fundamental pillar in the construction of a Digital Single Market and Data Economy. It is only through the use of standards that the requirements of interconnectivity and interoperability can be assured in an ICT-centric economy. BDVA and the BDV PPP will continue to lead the way in the development of technology and data standards for Big Data by:

Leveraging existing common standards as the basis for an open and successful Big Data market;
Supporting Standards Development Organisations (SDOs), such as ETSI, CEN-CENELEC, ISO, IEC, W3C, ITU-T and IEEE, by making experts available for all aspects of Big Data in the standardisation process;
Aligning the BDVA Big Data Reference Model with existing and evolving compatible architectures;
Liaising and collaborating with international consortia and SDOs through the TF6SG6 Standards Group and Workshops;
Integrating national efforts on an international (European) level as early as possible;
Providing education and educational material to promote developing standards

The Big Data Value Association’s Task Force on Standardization is committed to engaging with all stakeholders in the Big Data ecosystem and participating in the development of Global Standards for the Big Data community. As of August 19th 2017 the BDVA has an official liaison with ISO IEC JTC1 WG9 Big Data Standards group now merging into the newly established JTC 1/SC 42, Artificial Intelligence, which are tasked with developing the Big Data Reference Architecture for ISO. This is a mutually beneficial collaboration where we share information to help shape the future of Big Data Standardization.

The objective of this workshop is twofold: in one hand to get contributions for PPP and Big Data projects to the new new ISO Reference Architecture and the BDV Reference Model, and on the other hand to inform and further engage the wider European community interested in contributing to the Big Data and AI Standards priorities.
