Storage
isginf provides storage for different types of data and systems accessing them.
Personal and Project Data
isginf maintains the department's
primary file server for file storage with NFS and SMB/CIFS connectivity with very high redundancy, replication of data and long data retention to minimize the risk of loss of data. This service is primarily intended for personal (home) directories and valuable, actively used project data.
isginf also uses it as back end for various services.
Scratch Data
We also maintain a
scratch file server using large spinning disks for groups that are interested in large amounts of space. Data on this server is not backed up to tape but we offer the option of disk-to-disk backup to a different geolocation.
S3 Storage
For applications and systems that support it we provide S3 storage with replication of all buckets to a different geolocation an tape backup.
Archival
For archiving large sets of cold research data we provide access to the
ITS Long Term Storage.
Other Storage Solutions
For
research groups with special needs we can also provide dedicated storage solutions based on the following technologies:
