Large transfers with Globus
KREONET provides a software-based data transfer platform service (Globus) that supports high-speed transfer of large-capacity data between collaborative research institutions in the form of SaaS (Software as a Service).
Introduction
- KREONET has been providing a high-speed transfer environment for large amounts of data based on ScienceDMZ to KREONET member institutions, and securing a large-scale data transfer solution for this purpose.
- KREONET obtains a high-speed data transfer solution, Globus for global collaborations with the ScienceDMZ-based research platform (NRP: National Research Platform) and the Petascale DTN project between supercomputers.
Key features
- In addition to the core function of data transfer, Globus supports data sharing, data management and creation of custom portals for collaborative researchers.
- It offers a KREONET-branded website (https://globus.kreonet.net), third-party file transfer, file sharing, endpoint management, administrator console and clustering techniques for multiple DTNs.
Expected effect
- It is easy to manage the endpoints at KREONET PoPs by using the administrator console. In addtion, it efficienlty optimizes data movement performance by monitoring transfer tasks easily.
- For large-scale data-intensive research domains, it quickly responds to the research paradigm based on the scientific big data by providing premium services including large-scale data transfer and sharing for research communities.
Use cases
- It is used for large-scale data transfer by KREONET users (KFE, IBS, KASI, etc.), high-performance transmission based on the 100G DTN cluster for KISTI Supercomputer-5 (Nurion) and high-speed transfer in KISTI AI Data Sharing and Utilization service (AIDA).
