CC* Networking Infrastructure: University of California Santa Barbara Network Upgrade to 100 Gigabit

该项目提供网络基础设施升级，使加州大学圣巴巴拉分校能够继续扩展和扩展内部和外部研究计算的能力，同时支持增加的网络安全和威胁检测措施。升级后的服务将使加州大学圣巴巴拉分校120个研究团队使用的多样化和分布式科学数据集能够快速、畅通无阻地移动。网络基础设施升级将促进学习、科学和研究，并在加州大学圣巴巴拉分校校园内以及与全国和世界各地的研究伙伴建立更大的科学和研究数据可访问性。拟议的网络增强功能通过促进大数据集在三个关键数据生产者、用户和存储库之间的有效移动来解决校园内紧迫的网络饱和挑战：(1)校园内隶属于地球研究所的地球和环境研究小组；(2)亚历山大数字研究图书馆，这是加州大学圣巴巴拉分校图书馆的数字研究资料收藏之家，存放在加州大学圣巴巴拉分校图书馆；(3)加州大学圣巴巴拉分校的北厅数据中心，这是一个数据存档、存储和备份的中央存储库。此外，该提案通过增加校园边缘的网络带宽来支持加州大学圣巴巴拉分校的国家和全球协作计算工作。这些合作包括参与nsf资助的太平洋研究平台，亚里士多德联合云计划，大型强子对撞机开放网络环境以及极端科学与工程发现环境（XSEDE）。

This project provides cyberinfrastructure upgrades that will allow UC Santa Barbara to continue to scale and expand the capability of both internal and external research computing while simultaneously supporting increased cybersecurity and threat detection measures. Upgraded services will enable rapid, unimpeded movement of the diverse and distributed scientific data sets utilized by 120 research teams at UC Santa Barbara. Networking infrastructure upgrades will facilitate learning, science and research, and establish greater accessibility of scientific and research data within the UC Santa Barbara campus as well as with research partners across the nation and the world. Proposed network enhancements address urgent network saturation challenges across campus by facilitating efficient movement of large data sets between three critical groups of data producers, users, and repositories: (1) Earth and Environmental research groups on campus who affiliate within the Earth Research Institute; (2) the Alexandria Digital Research Library, which is UC Santa Barbara Library's home for collections of digital research materials hosted in the UCSB Library; and (3) the North Hall Data Center on the UC Santa Barbara campus, which is a central repository of data archives, storage, and backup. Additionally, the proposal supports UC Santa Barbara's national and world-wide collaborative computing efforts by increasing networking bandwidth at the edge of campus. These collaborations include involvement in the NSF-funded Pacific Research Platform, the Aristotle federated cloud initiative, the Large Hadron Collider Open Network Environment, and the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE).
