Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure relate to enabling independent storage and processing of data with centralized event control. An event control computing platform may receive an indicator of a processing task associated with processing a dataset. Subsequently, the event control computing platform may authenticate the indicator of the processing task. Then the event control computing platform may identify and allocate resources for executing the processing task and storing the dataset. Finally, the event control computing platform may generate and transmit a series of commands to cause the dataset to be accessed by the processing platform, cause the processing task associated with the dataset to be executed, and cause the processed dataset to be stored on the storage platform.

Claims (68)

1. A computing platform, comprising:

at least one processor;

a communication interface communicatively coupled to the at least one processor; and

memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing platform to:

receive, via the communication interface, an indicator of a processing task associated with processing a dataset;

authenticate the indicator of the processing task associated with the dataset;

identify a first level of resources required for executing the processing task;

allocate the first level of resources required for executing the processing task on a processing platform;

identify a second level of resources required for storing the dataset;

allocate the second level of resources required for storing the dataset on a storage platform independent of the first level of resources allocated for executing the processing task;

authorize execution of the processing task by the processing platform;

generate a first command configured to cause the dataset to be accessed by the processing platform from the storage platform;

transmit, via the communication interface, the first command to the processing platform;

generate a second command configured to cause the processing task associated with the dataset to be executed;

transmit, via the communication interface, the second command to the processing platform;

generate a third command configured to cause the processed dataset to be stored on the storage platform; and

transmit, via the communication interface, the third command to the storage platform identify a modified level of resources required for executing the processing task; and

allocate the modified level of resources required for executing the processing task on the processing platform.

2. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores additional computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing platform to:

generate a fourth command to cause the processed dataset to be analyzed by a data analysis platform.

3. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores additional computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing platform to:

transmit, via the communication interface, the fourth command to the data analysis platform.

4. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the processing platform includes a plurality of data processing clusters.

5. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the storage platform includes encrypted storage zones.

6. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores additional computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing platform to:

identify a modified level of resources required for storing the dataset.

7. The computing platform of claim 6 , wherein the memory stores additional computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing platform to:

allocate the modified level of resources required for storing the dataset.

8. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the storage platform comprises a distributed file system.

9. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the processing platform is configured to perform Monte Carlo simulations on the dataset.

10. The computing platform of claim 1 , wherein the storage platform and the processing platform use a same security layer.

11. A method, comprising:

at a computing platform comprising at least one processor, memory, and a communication interface:

receiving, via the communication interface, an indicator of a processing task associated with processing a dataset;

authenticating the indicator of the processing task associated with the dataset;

identifying a first level of resources required for executing the processing task;

allocating the first level of resources required for executing the processing task on a processing platform;

identifying a second level of resources required for storing the dataset;

allocating the second level of resources required for storing the dataset on a storage platform independent of the first level of resources allocated for executing the processing task;

authorizing execution of the processing task by the processing platform;

generating a first command configured to cause the dataset to be accessed by the processing platform from the storage platform;

transmitting, via the communication interface, the first command to the processing platform;

generating a second command configured to cause the processing task associated with the dataset to be executed;

transmitting, via the communication interface, the second command to the processing platform;
