I haven't used Kafka or Cassandra. I would be interested in developing a solution using these technologies to avoid redundancies.

There are a couple of topics in my mind which could be good proposals. 1. Distributed Task Execution (Workload Management) for Apache Airavata · Apoorv has already shown interest in this, and has a fair idea of the problem. · I have been working on building a prototype to solve this problem, as part of Science Gateways course [see:https://goo.gl/CZcIIn] · There are other possible approach(s), like using Akka, Cassandra, Kafka [see:https://youtu.be/s3GfXTnzG_Y] 2. Workflow Editor/Builder for Apache Airavata · Ajinkya had started on this topic, and I can use his inputs. · The idea is to allow modelling multiple Airavata job submissions into a workflow, using tools such as CWL (Common Workflow Language). · In addition, to integrate a workflow editor UI with the processing logic, and manage dependencies (whether 2 jobs can be run in parallel v/s waiting for one to complete since it depends on output of another). I would love to hear from you all on any suggestions, inclusions to make. Thanks and Regards, Gourav Shenoy
