April 25, 2018 (All day) to April 26, 2018 (All day)
Save the date for the biggest gathering of all things Globus: the annual GlobusWorld Conference, April 25–26, 2018.
GlobusWorld brings together researchers, systems administrators, developers and IT leaders from top computing centers, labs and universities around the U.S. The event is designed to provide new insights into managing research data and storage at scale, as well as building and using cutting-edge applications, portals and gateways.
This is the second in our Storage Innovations blog series, and the first post about on-premise solutions. In this article we’ve invited Matt Starr at Spectra Logic to provide insights about what to expect from turnkey solutions for on-prem storage (by “turnkey” I mean essentially plug and play devices that just work, and require very little effort to manage).
A Conversation with Spectra Logic CTO Matt Starr
[Steve Tuecke] First off, Matt, give our readers the facts they need to know about Spectra.
At this year's Cyber Security Chicago conference, Globus co-founder Steve Tuecke is hosting a panel on "The Future of Identity and Access Management" with speakers from Microsoft, Centrify, Okta and OneLogin.
Chicago, IL – October 13, 2017 – With a $4.7 million grant from the National Cancer Institute, the University of Chicago’s Globus and leading cancer researchers at University of Chicago Medicine will build new protected cancer research networks that enable collaborations while keeping sensitive health data secure and private.

At this year's IWSG (International Workshop on Science Gateways) in Australia, Globus Co-Founder Ian Foster will speak on "Globus Auth and Your Gateway: Why and How" at 11:15am on Tuesday, Oct. 17. The talk will introduce Globus Auth and explain how to use it to manage user identities and user accounts in Web applications and science gateways. Dr.
In this first in a series of posts about what’s going on in big data storage, especially as relates to research centers, universities and labs, I’ll be talking about the current state of campus research storage – the good and the bad – and point out what campuses need to be looking at as part of their data management planning.
Campus Research Storage Options
Let’s start with a summary of the options campuses have today in terms of providing storage for their researchers:
September 27, 2017 | Canadian Association of Research Libraries
The Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL), Portage, and Compute Canada are pleased to announce that the Federated Research Data Repository (FRDR) service has now finished Beta and will be entering into Limited Production starting the week of September 18th, 2017 to coincide with Portage and RDM in Canada – RDA 10th Plenary Collocated Event. We would like to sincerely thank everyone who improved the service by providing valuable feedback during Beta testing.
A few months ago we announced that support for the open source Globus Toolkit is ending. Since then we've become aware of confusion regarding the details and impact of this announcement, so I thought I would try to clarify things a bit.
We recently announced availability of Globus for Google Drive, adding another storage system that can be used with the Globus service. Globus for Google Drive was driven by customer demand to make Google Drive more effective as a storage tier suitable for researchers on campus. Common use cases include using Google Drive as a backup destination for research data, as intermediate storage for computation results, as a highly accessible repository to support Data Management Plans, and as a conduit for securely distributing derived data to users of a science gateway.
