Description

CERNBox is a unique service, part of the strategic portfolio of storage services provided by CERN IT to the Organisation. CMS relies on CERNBox for multiple usecases, for example as a safe backup of personal documents relying on the custodial storage in the computer centre, home directory accessible from SWAN or lxplus, as a storage element destination of output of grid jobs or again a way to safely share sensitive information among colleagues.
In this contribution we'll review cathergories of use cases, underlying the strenghts of today's CERNBox and trying to highlight avenues to further improve in the future.
