The Arecibo Observatory, UCF, TACC, the University of Puerto Rico, EPOC, Globus, CICoE Pilot partner to move telescope data to Ranch system
Millions of people have seen footage of the famed Arecibo radio telescope's collapse in December 2020. What they would not have seen from those videos was Arecibo's data center, located outside the danger zone. It stores the ‘golden copy' of the telescope's data — the original tapes, hard drives, and disk drives of sky scans since the 1960s.
Ian Foster, Co-Founder of Globus, and Director of Data Science and Learning Division at Argonne National Laboratory, will be a featured speaker on this webinar hosted by Open Storage Network.

UW–Madison is preparing to provide its researchers with Globus, a powerful data management tool. As part of the implementation, the university will host an informational event that has been presented at campuses across, well, the globe. You are invited to learn what Globus is and how it can help meet research data management needs.
In order to leverage the ever-increasing vast amounts of data, breaking down research silos and integrating research services becomes essential. Key to accomplishing this goal is to simplify data access by using existing identities. Globus Auth - a platform service offered by Globus - enables resources like NCAR, XSEDE, and Petrel to do just that. In the five years since its launch Globus Auth has grown to over 231,000 unique users, issued over one billion access tokens, and now issues over one million new tokens daily.
What data does Globus store and how is it protected?
We’ll introduce this session with a brief overview of the security and compliance aspects of Globus operations. Come learn what kinds of data Globus stores, how we protect that data, what privacy standards we follow, and what this all means for your own security and compliance programs. While this session will highlight Globus operational security, bring all your questions about any aspect of Globus to this office hours session
So you are a Globus Connect Server Version 5 endpoint administrator. You have set up your endpoint so those with local accounts can access their directory structures via mapped collections. Now you want to enable Globus guest collections so your users can leverage the full power of Globus in collaborative research. This session will show you how to do just that, as well as touch on some of the configuration options you can implement to ensure compliance with your security policies.
