Abstract

In the competitive market for large-scale storage solutions the current main disk storage system at CERN EOS has been showing its excellence in the multi-Petabyte high-concurrency regime. It has also shown a disruptive potential in powering the service in providing sync and share capabilities and in supporting innovative analysis environments along the storage of LHC data. EOS has also generated interest as generic storage solution ranging from university systems to very large installations for non-HEP applications.

  • While preserving EOS as an open software solution for our community we teamed up with COMTRADE company 1 within the CERN OpenLab 2 framework to productise this HEP oriented storage product in a fashion that promotes its adoption by other interested parties, notably outside HEP

  • EOS: A Large Scale Storage System for the scientific community and beyond EOS started its production phase in 2011 and currently holds 158PB of data and 1.1B files. It is a diskonly storage solution mainly focused on analysis and fast data processing with a very low access latency thanks to the multi-replication across nodes and JBOD layout 3
