EOS Ecosystem: Services, Monitoring, Framework, Roadmap
- Oliver Keeble (CERN)
Latest updates about XRootD development and the March XRootD Workshop.
A report about the deployment of the major version update of the eos client stack. From which XRootD v5 and Fuse v3 upgrades standout.
Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit originally built at SoundCloud. Since its inception in 2012, many companies and organizations have adopted Prometheus, and the project has a very active developer and user community. CERN EOS operations team have developed a Prometheus exporter for EOS, that exposes common EOS metrics in prometheus format. This presentation...
The Graphical User Interface (GUI) for CERN EOS could be crucial in the interaction between potential users and the EOS storage technology. The GUI could serve as an interface between a user and the complex EOS infrastructure, enabling non-experts to learn and discover EOS features seamlessly and effectively. This would help users interact with the storage infrastructure without needing to...
Context
An overview of the EOS Windows native client for EOS users on Windows operating systems
Objectives
EOS Windows native client should provide Windows platform users with native access to EOS cluster for both file transferring and command requests, giving them improved user experience compared to EOS Linux client.
Method
EOS Windows native client comes with two...
EOS-drive is part of the EOS Windows Native Client package, it mounts the EOS filesystem as a Windows disk drive by which Windows applications interact with the EOS filesystem.
EOS-drive communicates with Windows applications through the user-mode Dokan library and kernel-mode Dokan driver. File operation requests from applications (e.g., CreateFile, ReadFile, WriteFile...) are sent to the...
CERNBox combines the ease of use of a file sync and share service with the power of the scientific data processing infrastructure at CERN. Built on top of EOS and ownCloud, it provides a simple and uniform way to access over 15PB of research, administrative and engineering data across more than 2 billion files.
In this talk we will go through the latest advances made possible with the new...
The IT storage group at CERN is resposible to ensure integrity and security of all the stored data for physics and general computing services. In the last years a backup orchestrator, cback, has been developed based on the open source backup software restic. Cback is able to backup EOS, CephFS and any local mountable file system, like NFS or DFS. cback is currently used to daily backup CERNBox...
EOS for users service, internally known as EOSHPM (EOSHOME, EOSPROJECT and EOSMEDIA) currently stores 2.8 billion files and more than 20PB of storage. We store data of more than 45,000 users and project spaces and host multimedia related use cases for the IT Department. Data is accessed via filesystem (fuse), CERNBox (Web interface, Sync/Mobile client), SAMBA and HTTP. We will be reporting on...
We will give an overview about the development roadmap for 2023 and beyond.
