Description
Requirements from data archives and repositories form the basis of the
reliable long term storage infrastructure built in the bwDataArchiv project.
Large data from scientific experiments including HPC simulations that must be
kept around but does not need to occupy precious on-line analysis storage can
be stored easily by using common storage protocols, reliably by using end to
end checksums, and economically by using magnetic tape. Through available
technologies in combination with developments from e.g. other LSDMA/DSIT work
packages the infrastructure is effectively used by national and international
projects.
