Streaming a blockbuster movie in 4K means sending 15 gigabytes of data to your home in two hours. Argonne National Laboratory researchers recently moved approximately 23,000 times more data (more than 340 terabytes) in the same amount of time from Dallas, Texas, to Chicago, Illinois. The transfer was part of a demonstration that took place at SC18, an annual international conference for high-performance computing, networking, storage and analysis.
Globus was honored to be named with the organizations that contributed to the NSF IceCube Neutrino Observatory's project to find first evidence of high-energy cosmic neutrino source to pinpoint the origin of cosmic rays. This project won the HPCwire Editor’s Choice award for "Top HPC-Enabled Scientific Achievement" in 2018. Other organizations named in the award were PSC, SDSC, Stanford University, and XSEDE.
Smart home devices and popular web services such as If This Then That (IFTTT) have made it possible for people to automate many routine life tasks. Users can set their thermostat to kick up the heat if the temperature nears freezing, have their washing machine send them a text when a load is finished, or sync up calendars and to-do lists across home and work devices.
Data storage and management presents an increasing challenge to data-intensive research facilities, especially as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning projects generate a skyrocketing amount of data to be processed and analyzed faster and faster. Argonne National Laboratory is no different: as an emerging leader in data science and exascale computing, its researchers conduct leading-edge research in virtually every scientific discipline, collaborating with scientists at industries, universities, and government agencies.
CHICAGO, Sept. 11, 2018 — Globus, a leading research data management service, today announced support for management of protected data, including data regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). With higher assurance levels for protected data, researchers can now easily manage Protected Health Information (PHI), for example, and share it securely with collaborators

In this video from the HPC User Forum in Detroit, Irene Qualters from NSF presents on "Leadership Computing and NSF’s Computational Ecosystem," highlighting technologies like Globus as necessary elements of a leadership computing ecosystem.
Six years in the making, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Knowledgebase (KBase) program offers the most updated system for recording experimental methods, collaborating with colleagues and performing every step of biological analysis through one free, open source.
