CC* Networking Infrastructure: Enabling Data Intensive Science at Cornell University

这个名为CC*网络基础设施：在康奈尔大学启用数据密集型科学的项目正在将网络连接从该大学的主数据中心升级到Internet2，以对以前带宽有限的康奈尔大学的研究产生革命性的影响。升级后的网络基础设施为康奈尔大学的教职员工和学生研究人员提供了对远程数据集、仪器以及计算和数据分析资源的更快、更高容量的访问，从而推动了知识和发现的发展。数据驱动型学科(包括天文学、计算机科学、高能物理、生命科学和材料科学)的校园研究人员正在利用升级后的网络来缩短科学时间和提高研究人员的工作效率。这一升级也在为康奈尔大学及其国家合作伙伴未来的数据增长做好准备，物联网、更强大的科学仪器以及在机构之间共享大规模数据和资源的云计算模式将推动数据增长。由康奈尔大学的100G(千兆位每秒)组件实现的研究在人类基因组遗传变异分析、水资源管理、大气和气溶胶粒子数据分析以及全球健康和生物多样性方面影响个人健康和福祉。园区主干网的性能由项目的PerformSONAR基础设施进行监控，希望通过Internet2共享数据和资源的内部和外部用户都可以获得这些信息。公共门户网站提供100G路径健康状况的实时数据。项目成功的衡量标准是增加的带宽带来的大量研究收益。

This project, CC* Networking Infrastructure: Enabling Data Intensive Science at Cornell University, is upgrading network connectivity from the University's main data center to Internet2 to create a transformative impact on Cornell research that was previously bandwidth limited. The upgraded networking infrastructure is advancing knowledge and discovery by providing Cornell faculty and student researchers with faster and higher volume access to remote data sets, instrumentation, and computational and data analysis resources. Campus researchers in data-driven disciplines - including astronomy, computer science, high energy physics, life sciences, and material science - are using the upgraded networks to improve time to science and researcher productivity. This upgrade is also preparing Cornell and its national collaborators for future data growth driven by the Internet of Things, more powerful scientific instruments, and cloud computing models that share large-scale data and resources between institutions. Research enabled by Cornell's 100G (gigabits per second) components impacts individual health and well-being in analysis of genetic variations in the human genome, water resource management, analysis of atmospheric and aerosol particle data), as well as global health and biodiversity. Campus backbone performance is monitored by the project's perfSONAR infrastructure and that information is available to internal and external users wanting to share data and resources via Internet2. A public web portal provides real-time data on the health of the 100G path. Project success is measured in terms of the myriad research benefits made possible by the availability of this increased bandwidth.
