Today we released Globus web app support for scheduled and regularly repeating transfers. Now scheduling a recurring transfer is as easy as scheduling a recurring meeting. Nightly backups to cloud storage or hourly syncs to HPC centers, for example, can be configured with just a few clicks. Transfers can also be scheduled in advance, so a large data transfer can kick off late on a Sunday night, when bandwidth demands are lower.
Today’s researchers are faced with an increasingly complex storage landscape, and are implementing many different storage types and deployment models to meet their storage requirements. Globus is addressing this growing need for a diverse set of storage options, and continues to test new storage systems and add premium connectors to give researchers even more storage alternatives to use with its service including cloud object stores, tape archives, and proprietary storage systems.
The Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) has long been focused on developing ways to streamline workflows and reduce network operational burdens on the scientific programs and researchers they serve directly, as well as those on behalf of the entire R&E network community.
Globus Connect Server version 5 (GCSv5) provides new capabilities and enhancements for both administrators and users and offers platform features that allow developers to build interesting data management solutions. Among other improvements, GCSv5…
- ...replaces user certificates with OAuth based authentication,
- ...adds HTTP/S access to data,
- ...simplifies support for multiple storage types via a DTN pool,
- ...provides higher levels of assurance for managing protected data,
The petabytes produced and consumed by exascale computers must often be moved among elements of the international scientific infrastructure. Scientists have long relied upon Globus for efficient, reliable, and secure data movement, and indeed as of 10/18/2021, Globus has been used to move more than 1018 bytes (1,343,546,072,100,387,000,000 bytes to be precise) among more than 20,000 labs worldwide.
As part of the Symposium there is a panel discussion which includes industry partners who have done work with ICS researchers. Globus and PSU will discuss their partnered research
On March 7th of 2016, a couple of members of the Globus team started working on replacing the globusonline-transfer-api-client package. We debated what to call it. Was it the globus-client? Just globus-python? "What about SDK -- Standard Development Kit?" "Yeah, SDK is good."
Bio IT World, Boston, MA – September 21, 2021 – Today Globus announced support for Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, providing the research community with secure, reliable, and easy to use data management services for Microsoft’s massively scalable and secure object storage for cloud-native and hybrid workloads, data lakes, high-performance computing, and machine learning.
To accommodate database upgrades, Globus Auth and Transfer services will be unavailable for up to 30 minutes beginning at 10 am US Central on Saturday, September 18, 2021.
During this planned downtime, the following will be impacted:
