项目摘要

There is a growing demand at Auburn University for an on-campus cyberinfrastructure that can enable high-speed communication for data-intensive scientific simulation and analytics applications. The lack of a high-speed network cyberinfrastructure on-campus has significantly constrained the growth of multidisciplinary data-driven scientific research. Such a cyberinfrastructure is important for interdisciplinary data analytics at Auburn.This project constructs a cutting-edge campus-wide network infrastructure called TigerSphere. It deploys a fabric of 10 Gbps switches to connect colleges, schools, research centers at Auburn via dual 10 Gbps links, increasing the connection bandwidth from all colleges/schools to the Auburn backbone by 20 times (from 1 Gbps to 20 Gbps), and the bandwidth of edge networks at colleges/schools by 100 times (from 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps). In addition, TigerSphere includes a new fiber circuit of 10 Gbps to national scientific networks such as Internet2, enabling high-bandwidth, large-volume data movement from and to national data/computing centers. Furthermore, TigerSphere substantially improves Auburn University cyberinfrastructure for multidisciplinary research and training activities, particularly for data-intensive scientific computation and analytics.This network infrastructure has broader impact in several aspects, such as improving Auburn network infrastructure with a high-speed ubiquitous TigerSphere, promoting multidisciplinary collaborations within Auburn University and with nearby organizations, enhancing research training activities and broadening the participation of under-represented students in professional computing careers.

奥本大学对校园网络基础设施的需求日益增长，该基础设施可以为数据密集型科学模拟和分析应用提供高速通信。高速网络基础设施的缺乏严重制约了多学科数据驱动型科学研究的发展。这样的网络基础设施对于奥本大学的跨学科数据分析非常重要。该项目构建了一个名为TigerSphere的尖端校园网络基础设施。它部署了一个10gbps交换机结构，通过双10gbps链路连接奥本大学、学校和研究中心，将所有学院/学校到奥本主干的连接带宽提高了20倍（从1gbps提高到20gbps），将学院/学校边缘网络的带宽提高了100倍（从100mbps提高到10gbps）。此外，TigerSphere还包括一条通往国家科学网络（如Internet2）的10 Gbps新光纤电路，使高带宽、大容量数据能够在国家数据/计算中心之间来回移动。此外，TigerSphere大大改善了奥本大学的多学科研究和培训活动的网络基础设施，特别是数据密集型科学计算和分析。这种网络基础设施在几个方面具有更广泛的影响，例如用高速无处不在的TigerSphere改善奥本网络基础设施，促进奥本大学内部和附近组织的多学科合作，加强研究培训活动，扩大代表性不足的学生在专业计算职业中的参与。
