Today, research questions are addressed by complex models, by large data analysis tasks, and by sophisticated data visualization techniques, all requiring data. To address the growing global need for data infrastructure, the Research Data Alliance (RDA) was launched in FY13 as an international community-driven organization. We propose to bring together members of RDA with the HPC community to create a shared conversation around the utility of RDA for data-driven challenges in HPC.
