Campus networks preparing for BIGDATA Erik Deumens Research Computing UFIT 10/29/2012

 Speakers: ◦ Elias Eldayrie, VP & CIO  Welcome ◦ Chris Griffin, UF & FLR network architect  Advancements in networking at the University of Florida and Florida LambdaRail in support of BIGDATA ◦ Xiaolin “Andy” Li, Prof. ECE, PI of MRI grant  GatorCloud: Enabling High-Impact Scientific Research and Collaboration via Software Defined Networks and Cloud Services ◦ Looking at other campuses  Panel discussion  Challenges in BIGDATA Management Agenda: Moving BIGDATA

 Proxy speakers ◦ Jim Bottum, VP & CIO, and ◦ Kuang-Ching Wang, Prof. Electrical and Computer Engineering  Clemson ◦ Tracy Futhey, VP & CIO  Duke ◦ Ron Hutchins, Assoc. VP & CTO  Georgia Tech ◦ Mark Miyasaki, Exec. Dir. Communications  Stanford Agenda: Other campuses

 Modern science ◦ Is too complex for any single PI lab ◦ requires collaboration  Scientists and research groups in different labs  Different disciplines  Biology – math – comp. sci. – stats  Physics – chemistry – biology  Researchers and infrastructure builders  Scientists – network engineers – storage engineers Collaboration is key

The institution/organization that figures out how to enable collaboration will lead in innovation and discovery
