[ONLINE] IO-SEA: Long Term Data Storage in IO-SEA and Object Storage in HPC Applications

Monday 25 Sept 2023, 13:00 → 16:15 Europe/Prague

online

Annotation

This webinar will expose the different facets of the software stack developed by the IO-SEA project. It will provide training on the following:

• Object storage on disks and tapes
• Hierarchical Storage Management applied to object store
• Ephemeral IO services with a focus on
  • Tools to export object store as NFS shares
  • On-demand burst buffers
  • Accesses via the Amazon S3 protocol
• Users' point of view and workflow management
• Monitoring of the whole system

Benefits for the attendees, what will they learn:

• Issues specific to storage from an exascale perspective
• Pieces of software designed to address those issues
• Object stores used in an exascale environment
• Massive storage management

Level

Advanced

Language

English

Prerequisites

User experience on working in a supercomputing environment, some notions on storage systems and parallel programming could be useful.
