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 one or more computerized tools may be configured to discover, form, and analyze, for example, via one or more user interface applications, interrelations among a system of networked collaborative datasets In some examples, a method may include causing transformation of a set of data to an atomized format to form an atomized dataset, monitoring creation of a dataset, and presenting data representing a status of a portion of the creation of the dataset. The status may depict an atomized dataset linked to at least one other dataset.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

receiving data to form a first input via a user interface at a computing device as a first user interface element to initiate creation of a dataset based on a set of data;

activating a programmatic interface to facilitate the creation of the dataset responsive to receiving the first input;

causing transformation of the set of data from a first format to an atomized format to form an atomized dataset;

monitoring the creation of the dataset; and

presenting data representing a status on the user interface of at least a portion of the creation of the dataset, the status depicting that the atomized dataset is linked to at least one other dataset.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

receiving data to form a second input via the user interface as a second user interface element to upload the set of data; and

transmitting an upload instruction to a server computing system implementing a collaborative dataset consolidation system to import the set of data.

3. The method of claim 2 further comprising:

receiving data to form via the user interface a third user interface element specifying a first phase of an uploading status during which data representing insights of the set of data is formed, the insights specifying at least one dataset attribute;

receiving data to form via the user interface a fourth user interface element specifying a second phase of the uploading status during which data representing linking of the atomized dataset to other datasets including at least one other atomized dataset; and

presenting the third user interface element and the fourth user interface element at the user interface.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

receiving data to form a first subset of user interface elements associated with a plurality of dataset interactions, the plurality of dataset interactions are each characterized at a computing system implementing a collaborative dataset consolidation system to form characterized dataset interactions; and

presenting user input interface elements in association with the characterized dataset interactions for each user interface element in the first subset of user interface elements, at least one of the user input interface elements being configured to initiate access to data describing a dataset interaction.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein receiving the data to form the first subset of user interface elements comprises:

receiving a plurality of notifications constituting a dataset activity feed in a portion of the user interface.

6. The method of claim 4 wherein the characterized dataset interactions comprise:

one or more of a new dataset is created, a dataset is queried, a dataset is linked to another dataset, a comment relating to a dataset is associated thereto, and a dataset is relevant to another dataset.

7. The method of claim 4 wherein data representing the characterized dataset interactions comprise:

one or more of dataset update data and collaborator update data generated at a dataset attribute manager.

8. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

receiving a data signal via the user interface requesting access to dataset attribute manager data;

transmitting data representing the request to access a portion of the dataset attribute manager data;

presenting data representing the portion of the dataset attribute manager data at the user interface.

9. The method of claim 8 wherein presenting data representing the portion of the dataset attribute manager data at the user interface comprises:

presenting relevant dataset data that specifies a subset of datasets having dataset attributes calculated to be relevant to the atomized dataset.

10. The method of claim 8 wherein presenting data representing the portion of the dataset attribute manager data at the user interface comprises:

presenting relevant collaborator data that specifies a subset of user accounts having user account attributes calculated to be relevant to a user account associated with the atomized dataset.

11. The method of claim 8 wherein presenting data representing the portion of the dataset attribute manager data at the user interface comprises:

presenting trending dataset data that specifies a subset of datasets having dataset attributes calculated to include greater dataset attribute values relative to a superset of datasets.

12. The method of claim 8 wherein presenting data representing the portion of the dataset attribute manager data at the user interface comprises:

presenting trending collaborator data that specifies a subset of user accounts having user account attributes calculated to include greater user account attributes values relative to a superset of user accounts.

13. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

receiving data to form a fifth input via the user interface as a fifth user interface element to link the atomized dataset to the at least one other dataset;

presenting via the user interface a sixth user interface element including specifying the at least one other dataset is protected, the at least one other dataset being a protected dataset;

receiving data via the sixth user interface element to facilitate authorized access to the protected dataset.

14. The method of claim 13 further comprising:

transmitting authorization data to a computing system implementing a collaborative dataset consolidation system to link the atomized dataset to the at least one other dataset; and

receiving via the user interface to access a collaborative data in collaborative dataset that includes the atomized dataset and the at least one other dataset.
