Paper Abstract
The Virtual Observatory (VO) is realizing global electronic integration of astronomy data. One of the long-term goals of
the U.S. VO project, the Virtual Astronomical Observatory (VAO), is development of services and protocols that
respond to the growing size and complexity of astronomy data sets. This paper describes how VAO staff are active in
such development efforts, especially in innovative strategies and techniques that recognize the limited operating budgets
likely available to astronomers even as demand increases. The project has a program of professional outreach whereby
new services and protocols are evaluated.
