We propose hardware and software assets to implement a robust and secure infrastructure to store, archive, and share next-generation, high volume genomics data at collaborating nodes of the NERC Biomolecular Analysis Facilities in Liverpool and Edinburgh. The new e-infrastructure, built on existing core systems, will support a multi-tier storage architecture for: efficient data access for local processing; secure on-site storage; high-speed file transfer to the end user, to public repositories (e.g. European Nucleotide Archive) and to cloud computing resources (e.g. Cloud Bio-Linux); and fast data upload to NBAF servers. The assets will consist of network and server-attached storage, and industry leading Aspera file transfer technology to deliver speeds many times faster than FTP or HTTP.

我们提出硬件和软件资产，以实现一个强大而安全的基础设施，以存储，存档，并在利物浦和爱丁堡的NERC生物分子分析设施的协作节点共享下一代，高容量的基因组学数据。建立在现有核心系统基础上的新的电子基础设施将支持一个多层存储架构，用于：高效的数据访问，以进行本地处理;安全的现场存储;向最终用户、公共储存库（如欧洲核苷酸档案馆）和云计算资源（如Cloud Bio-Linux）的高速文件传输;以及向NBAF服务器的快速数据上传。这些资产将包括网络和服务器连接存储，以及行业领先的FTP文件传输技术，其速度比FTP或HTTP快许多倍。
