BaBar Experiment Data Distribution using the Storage Resource Broker
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the layout and experience in distributing large volumes of data from SLAC to CC-in2p3 and RAL. We describe the experience using the Storage Resource Broker to distribute more than 120TB of data from SLAC to CC-in2p3 and the experience in using a Grid tool in a production environment. We also describe the plans for extending the system to distribute BaBar data to RAL using the SRB making use of the new features of federation.

Event Logging and Distribution for the BaBar Online System
We discuss the BABAR experiment software and computing infrastructure used for event logging and distribution to prompt reconstruction system. The raw data for typical BABAR events is about 30-50 kB per event. During the data taking a 100 Hz stream of events is collected from a farm of 32 online computers amounting to about 3-5 MB/s. A robust and efficient multi-threaded, TCP/IP based logging m...
متن کاملAn interoperable & optimal data grid solution for heterogeneous and SOA based Grid- GARUDA
Storage plays an important role in sufficing the requirements of data intensive applications in a Grid computing environment. Current Scientific applications perform complex computational analysis, and consume/produce hundreds of terabytes of data. The authors in this paper have surveyed available data grid solutions, viz., Storage Resource Broker (SRB), Grid File System (GFS), Storage Resource...
متن کاملTowards A Grid-Enabled Biomolecular Simulation Database
The overall aim of the BioSimGrid project is to build a distributed data and computing platform to enable large scale analysis of the results of biomolecular simulations. To address the challenges of distributed computing on large amounts of simulation data, we have built an open software framework system based on off-the-shelf middleware, SRB (Storage Resource Broker) and the distributed enter...
متن کاملData clustering and placement for the BaBar database
The BaBar experiment at the PEP-II accelerator at SLAC, due to come online in early 1999, will generate approximately 300 TB of physics and simulated data per year during its lifetime. The user community of approximately 500 physicists is widely dispersed, but require high speed access to much of the data. The placement of data throughout the collaboration and across media of different access c...
متن کاملThe SDSC Storage Resource
This paper describes the architecture of the SDSC Storage Resource Broker (SRB). The SRB is middleware that provides applications a uniform API to access heterogeneous distributed storage resources including, lesys-tems, database systems, and archival storage systems. The SRB utilizes a metadata catalog service, MCAT, to provide a \collection"-oriented view of data. Thus, data items that belong...
