The reliable, predictable, and rapid dissemination of scientific data from where it is generated to innovators, scientists, and collaborators is a challenge the CC-NIE program seeks to address. Without world-class network infrastructure, the ability of institutions to conduct world-class research is hindered and the competitiveness of the US is reduced.The MARIA 100G project addresses a known bottleneck point in the NatCap network aggregation facility operated by Virginia Tech on behalf of the research and education community in Virginia, including the research institutions who are members of the Mid-Atlantic Research Infrastructure Alliance (MARIA). The project is upgrading the aggregation link to the Internet2 national research network, from a 2x5 gigabit per second capacity shared by all institutions in the commonwealth to a 100 gigabit per second capacity. The removal of the bottleneck paves the way for the unimpeded exchange of dramatically growing data sets in the course of scientific discovery.

从科学数据产生的地方向创新者、科学家和合作者可靠、可预测和快速地传播科学数据是CC-NIE计划寻求解决的挑战。如果没有世界级的网络基础设施，机构进行世界级研究的能力将受到阻碍，美国的竞争力也会降低。Maria 100G项目解决了弗吉尼亚理工大学代表弗吉尼亚州研究和教育社区运营的NatCap网络聚合设施中的一个已知瓶颈，其中包括属于中大西洋研究基础设施联盟(Maria)成员的研究机构。该项目正在将汇聚链路升级到Internet2国家研究网络，从英联邦所有机构共享的2x5千兆位每秒容量升级到100千兆位每秒容量。瓶颈的消除为在科学发现过程中畅通无阻地交换急剧增长的数据集铺平了道路。
