Description

Data volumes and data variety on campus has grown drastically in recent years. ARC-TS, the research computing provider at the University of Michigan embarked on a project to provide mult-tier storage environment for our research community. The goals of this project was to meet several needs:

  • Address the needs of both open-science and restricted data
  • Apply performance levels and costs that match the data domain
  • Support matching research life cycle, tracking the value of the data over time

This short talk will address how we addressed this need and our experiences and challenges along the way. We will also address what we think our next steps are to make data more accessible and portable between local and remote environments.
