Mr David Jericho (AARNet)17/11/2014, 14:15Users and use-casesAs more users adopt AARNetโs CloudStor Plus offering within Australia, interim solutions deployed to overcome failures of various distributed replicated storage technologies havenโt kept pace with the growth in data volume. AARNetโs original design goal of user proximal data storage, combined with national and even international data replication for redundancy reasons continues to be a key...Go to contribution page

Patrick Haworth Owen (Imperial College Sci., Tech. & Med. (GB))17/11/2014, 14:40Users and use-casesGanga is a python API for submitting jobs to distributed computing systems. When a user submits processing jobs to a Grid or a Cloud resource, these jobs will often depend on input as well as producing output. To make the job gain access to the input and how to get easy access to the output afterwards is often a challenge. Within the Ganga framework, we have implemented an abstraction...Go to contribution page

Dr Marian Bubak (AGH University of Science and Technology, Krakow, Poland)17/11/2014, 15:05Users and use-casesThe VPH-Share project [1] develops a cloud platform for the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH) research community. One of the key challenges is to share and access large datasets used by medical applications to transform them into meaningful diagnostic information. VHP researchers need advanced storage capabilities to enable collaboration without introducing additional complexity to the way...Go to contribution page

Daniel Harฤลผlak (A)17/11/2014, 15:55Technology and researchManaging and sharing data stored in files results in a challenge due to data amounts produced by various scientific experiments [1]. While solutions such as Globus Onlineย [2] focus on file transfer and synchronization, in this work we propose an additional layer of metadata over file resources which helps to categorize and structure the data, as well as to make it efficient in integration with...Go to contribution page

Mr Klaas Freitag (ownCloud GmbH)17/11/2014, 17:00Technology and researchThe ownCloud desktop clients provide file syncing between desktop machines and the ownCloud server, available for the important desktop platforms. This presentation will give an overview of the sync algorithm used by the clients to provide a fast, reliable and robust syncing experience for the users. It will describe the phases a sync run will go through and how it is triggered. It also...Go to contribution page

Maciej Brzezniak (P)17/11/2014, 17:25Technology and researchIn our presentation we will analyse approaches to combine the sync & share functionality with file system-like access to data. While relatively small data volumes (GBs) can be distributed by sync&share application across user devices such as PCs, laptops and mobiles, interacting with really large data volumes (TBs, PBs) may require additional remote data access mechanism such as...Go to contribution page

Fabrizio Furano (CERN)17/11/2014, 17:50Technology and researchThe Dynamic Federation project aims to give tools and methods to on-the-fly federate different storage repositories whose content satisfies some basic requirements of homogeneity. The Dynafeds have been designed to work in WANs, have given so far excellent results also in LAN, and are well adapted to working with the HTTP/WebDAV protocols and derivatives, thus including a broad range of...Go to contribution page

Paul Millar (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DE))17/11/2014, 18:15Technology and researchFor over a decade, the dCache team has provided software for handling big data for a diverse community of scientists. The team has also amassed a wealth of operational experience from using this software in production. With this experience, the team have refined dCache with the goal of providing a "scientific cloud": a storage solution that satisfies all requirements of a user community by...Go to contribution page

George Jaroslav Kremenek (u)17/11/2014, 19:05Technology and researchWe are currently witnessing data explosion and exponential data growth. I will talk about real world experience with very large data sets storage and services. We are storing Peta and in the near future Exa bytes and hundreds or thousands millions of data sets. The one problem is very large number of data objects. File systems were not created to effectively manage thousands of million data...Go to contribution page
