The Research Computing team has launched a dedicated, robust, large capacity storage system called Engram to support research and collaboration for Zuckerman researchers. The system has an initial capacity of roughly two (2) petabytes (2,000 terabytes) and is designed to accommodate growth of tens of thousands of terabytes (TB) over the next years if required.
Engram is a highly versatile scale-out network-attached storage (NAS) platform (EMC Isilon) that can provide fast access to massive amounts of unstructured data. Each of the 24 Engram storage nodes can respond to client requests and all the nodes are connected via a redundant 10 gigabit per second (Gbps) Ethernet fiber optic network.
We can help you find the best way to use Engram for your particular research .Contact - please contact us at support@zi.columbia.edu.
