The project CERN is the project coordinator Contacts: Olivier Martin European partners: INFN (IT), PPARC (UK), University of Amsterdam (NL) and, since July 2002, INRIA (FR) Budget: 3.98 MEUR Start date: January, 1, 2002 Duration: 2 years (aligned on DataGrid) Funded manpower: ~ 15 people/year 12/3/2018 The DataTAG Project
Goals End to end Gigabit Ethernet performance using innovative high performance transport protocols. Assess & experiment inter-domain QoS and bandwidth reservation techniques. Interoperability between major GRID projects middleware/testbeds in Europe and North America. DataGrid, possibly other EU funded Grid projects PPDG, GriPhyN, iVDGL, Teragrid (USA) LCG 12/3/2018 The DataTAG Project
In a nutshell Two main focus: Grid related network research (WP2, WP3): 2.5 Gbps transatlantic lambda between CERN (Geneva) and StarLight (Chicago) (WP1) Dedicated to research (no production traffic) Very unique multi-vendor testbed with layer 2 and layer 3 capabilities in effect, a distributed transatlantic Internet Exchange Point. Open to other European Grid projects for demonstrations Interoperability between European and US Grids (WP4) Middleware integration and coexistency - Applications GLUE integration/standardization GLUE testbed and demo 12/3/2018 The DataTAG Project
The 2.5 Gbps transatlantic circuit Why yet another 2.5 Gbps transatlantic circuit? Most existing or planned 2.5 Gbps transatlantic circuits are for production, i.e. not suitable for advanced networking experiments requiring operational flexibility, e.g.: deploying new equipment (routers, G-MPLS capable multiplexers), activating new functionality (QoS, MPLS, distributed VLAN) The only known exception to date is the Surfnet circuit between Amsterdam & Chicago (Starlight) 12/3/2018 The DataTAG Project

What we have achieved The 2.5Gbps transatlantic circuit Operational since August 20 (delivered by Deutsche Telekom/T-Systems ) Routing plan developed (access across GEANT) As expected, the full DataTAG testbed could not be readily deployed because of late ordering but also delivery delays, therefore the circuit will initially be connected to Cisco 7600 routers Full testbed to be deployed by the end of October Six high performance PCs will be deployed on each side of the high performance circuit in the coming week(s). The full layer2/layer3 testbed should be ready by the end of October 12/3/2018 The DataTAG Project
