Abstract
En el presente documento se detalla el procedimiento de investigación e implementación que permitió definir la arquitectura de requerimientos y el diseño correspondiente para el observatorio virtual chileno (ChiVO). Todo esto, de acuerdo a los desafíos actuales que se presentan en el área de la astronomía en términos del almacenamiento y procesamiento de los grandes volúmenes de datos procedentes de distintos observatorios astronómicos. Mediante esta memoria el lector podrá evidenciar que la implantación de esta plataforma astro-informática chilena sustentada bajo un arquitectura "CloudComputing" brinda una soluciónn tangible capaz de sopesar en cierta medida el problema de la “avalancha de datos" para su uso dinámico y efectivo. Por otra parte podrá distinguir mediante un análisis sistémico, las funciones y relaciones que cumplen cada uno de los componentes que conforman el sistema de ChiVO,considerando en todo momento los protocolos y estándares recomendados para la implementación de un observatorio virtual. Finalmente, es menester señalar que este trabajo está orientado para astrónomosque deseen utilizar los servicios que dispondrá este observatorio virtual (algunos ya disponibles), para ingenierios informáticos que busquen una base teóricapara la fundamentación de arquitecturas "Cloud", y en de finitiva para cualquie rpersona con interés de dimensionar lo que conlleva el desarrollo de una plataforma astroinformática.
This particular document expresses the investigation and implementation procedures, which allows the definition of an architecture for requirements and the corresponding design for the Chilean Virtual Observatory (ChiVO). All this, according to the current challenges that arise in the area of astronomy in terms of storage and processing of large volumes of data from various astronomical observatories. Through this memory, the reader could witness that the implementation of this Chilean astro-informatics platform, supported by an architecture “Cloud Computing" manifests a tangible solution capable of weighing up (to some extent) the problem of “Data Avalanche" for its dynamic and effective use. On the other hand the reader will be able to distinguish through a systemic analysis, the functions and relations that fulfill each of the components that make up the ChiVO system, considering at all times the protocols and standards recommended for the implementation of a virtual observatory. Finally, it is necessary to point out that this work is oriented towards astronomers who wish to use the services that the Chilean Virtual Observatory will have available (some of which already are), for computer engineers seeking a theoretical basis for the foundation of “Cloud" architectures, and ultimately, for any person with interest on what is involved in the development of an astro-informatics platform.
