Abstract

Various embodiments relate generally to data science and data analysis, computer software and systems, and wired and wireless network communications to provide an interface between repositories of disparate datasets and computing machine-based entities that seek access to the datasets, and, more specifically, to a computing and data storage platform that facilitates consolidation of one or more datasets, whereby a collaborative data layer and associated logic facilitate, for example, efficient access to, and implementation of, collaborative datasets. In some examples, a method may include receiving data representing a query into a collaborative dataset consolidation system, identifying datasets relevant to the query, generating one or more queries to access disparate data repositories, and retrieving data representing query results. In some cases, one or more queries are applied (e.g., as a federated query) to atomized datasets stored in one or more atomized data stores, at least two of which may be different.
