Abstract
GOMEZ PEDRAZA, Iván Fernando; VARELA GARZON, Carlos Alberto; ARGUELLO FUENTES, Henry and ESCOBAR RAMIREZ, Juan Carlos. Data mass-storage architecture in a Grid infrastructure using glite middleware. Tecnura [online]. 2012, vol.16, n.34, pp.28-42. ISSN 0123-921X.
Nowadays, the increase in research projects at universities requires high-computing and mass-storage equipment, creating the need for having a supercomputing infrastructure. This work attempts to find a solution to the storage problems that arise in the different research groups at universities. Massive-storage infrastructures, which use a file system compatible with EGEE middleware, are implemented, taking advantage of the storage space left by working nodes. This should offer a very low-price solution. Additionally, a cluster with fundamental Grid services is created and thus integrated to the intercontinental infrastructure of EELA-2, establishing a platform for distributed computing and storage intended for the scientific community at Universidad Industrial de Santander.
