NSF CC* Data Storage

High Volume Data Storage Infrastructure for Scientific Research and Education at Kennesaw State University Shared as Open Science Data Federation Data Origin

The  program invests in coordinated campus-level cyberinfrastructure improvements, innovation, integration, and engineering for science applications and distributed research projects.

The 成人直播 proposal intends to develop a high-capacity storage system with around 4.3PB overall usable storage as an Open Science Data Federation (OSDF) data origin to support scientific research and education activities on both campuses of 成人直播 (成人直播). 30% of the storage is to be allocated for hosting datasets of external researchers and sharing 成人直播 spawned datasets to empower national research projects.  You can learn more in the 成人直播's Proposal Abstract and in the .
