我们报告的状态OSiRIS项目（NSF奖#1541335，UM，IU，MSU和WSU）后，其第四年。OSiRIS正在提供分布式Ceph存储基础设施，并结合软件定义的网络，以支持密歇根州三所最大的研究型大学以及货车Andel研究所的多个科学领域。该项目的目标是提供一个单一的可扩展的分布式存储基础设施，使每个校园的研究人员能够与校园或机构内的其他研究人员协作。资助OSiRIS的NSF CC*DNI DIBBs计划正在寻求解决方案，以应对涉及大量数据的多机构合作的挑战，我们正在探索创造性地使用Ceph和网络来应对这些挑战。我们将详细介绍该项目的当前状态及其各种科学领域的用户和用例。在演示文稿中，我们将介绍各种设计选择，配置以及我们在提供由受监控的可编程网络结构互连的多机构Ceph部署时遇到的调整和操作挑战。最后，我们将介绍该项目最后一年的计划及其长期展望。
We report on the status of the OSiRIS project (NSF Award #1541335, UM, IU, MSU and WSU) after its fourth year. OSiRIS is delivering a distributed Ceph storage infrastructure coupled together with software-defined networking to support multiple science domains across Michigan’s three largest research universities as well as the Van Andel Institute. The project’s goal is to provide a single scalable, distributed storage infrastructure that allows researchers at each campus to work collaboratively with other researchers across campus or across institutions. The NSF CC*DNI DIBBs program which funded OSiRIS is seeking solutions to the challenges of multi-institutional collaborations involving large amounts of data and we are exploring the creative use of Ceph and networking to address those challenges. We will present details on the current status of the project and its various science domain users and use-cases. In the presentation we will cover the various design choices, configuration and the tuning and operational challenges we have encountered in providing a multiinstitutional Ceph deployment interconnected by a monitored, programmable network fabric. We will conclude with our plans for the final year of the project and its longer term outlook.
