Dragging Researchers and their Data Into the Library

Home / Project Briefing Pages / CNI Spring 2018 Membership Meeting Project Briefings / Dragging Researchers and their Data Into the Library

March 13, 2018

Tim Marconi
IT Operations Manager
University of California, San Diego

Researchers are producing data at an unprecedented rate. Once they publish, that data often gets tossed, lost or stored on a server under their desk. How do you bridge the gap between becoming a dumping ground for unstructured raw data and the place where you can collaborate with a research group to curate and distribute their data in our Digital Asset Management System? This session will cover how we set up a staging server with half a petabyte of capacity to capture research data and assist researchers and curators to collaborate on a shared platform. After working with over 20 different researchers and labs, it became perfectly clear that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. This session will discuss methods used to capture research data through an internet-based large file transfer service, to typical NFS/CIFS mounts, and the unexpected successes and challenges found therein.
