The BoF was led by Rachel Palumbo (ORNL) with a panel drawn from across the ODA team: LBNL, Sandia, HPE, ORNL, LRZ, LLNL, and RIKEN.</p> <h2 id="the-standardization-problem">The Standardization Problem</h2> <p>Previous BoFs had charted the ODA field from holistic monitoring (SC19) to the data tsunami (SC22) to statistical and AI methods. During SC22, a thread had emerged around open data and the standardization of monitoring data. SC23 put that thread front and center.</p> <p>Some sites had successfully leveraged their monitoring data to optimize HPC operations, but their approaches were not easily transferable. The main stumbling blocks for closer collaboration were different approaches to organizing data, incompatible naming schemes, and a lack of metadata. Experts with data-analysis expertise were in short supply, and without shared data conventions, sites were effectively redoing each other&rsquo;s work.</p> <h2 id="outcome">Outcome</h2> <p>The BoF reported back on current efforts to drive standardization, helped to establish a larger community backed by the EE HPC WG, fostered collaboration among different HPC sites, and drove further discussion toward standardization and data sharing. The standardization theme continued into ISC 2024 as &ldquo;Interoperable Monitoring and Analysis.&rdquo;</p>
