Description
The Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission is running the Big Data Analytics Platform (BDAP) to enable the JRC projects to store, process, and analyze a wide range of data and disseminate data products. The platform evolved as a core service for JRC scientists to produce knowledge and insights in support of EU policy making.
EOS is the main storage system of the BDAP for scientific data. It is in increasing use at JRC since 2016. The Big Data Analytics Platform is actively used by more than 90 JRC projects, covering a wide range of data analytics activities. The EOS instance at JRC has currently a gross capacity of 34 PB with an additional increase planned throughout 2024.
The presentation will give an overview about EOS as storage back-end of the Big Data Analytics Platform. It covers the general setup and current status, experiences made, issues discovered, and an outlook of planned activities and changes in 2024.
