The Research Computing team has launched a dedicated, robust, large capacity scientific data storage system called Engram to support research and collaboration for Zuckerman researchers. The system has an initial a capacity of roughly two (2) .8 petabytes (2,000 800 terabytes) and is designed to accommodate growth of tens of thousands of terabytes (TB) over the next years if required.
Engram can be accessed remotely by using the CUIT Virtual Private Network (VPN) service. (More VPN setup details provided here (Limited access UNI login required))
