Associated with its storage, ORCD supports Globus data transfer and sharing services. ORCD funds a standard Globus subscription. This provides mechanisms for transferring data to and from ORCD systems with collaborators all over the world and supports integrations with numerous cloud storage services.
A default Globus service allows any researcher to easily upload and download data from their personal storage to another Globus subscription based or Globus personal endpoint location. This service can be used to automate transfers to/from remote systems and to/from laboratory instruments.
The Globus subscription also supports more advanced features for data sharing and for data processing automation.
For details on and examples of Globus capabilities please see https://orcd-docs.mit.edu or https://globus.org or email orcd-help@mit.edu.
ORCD also funds a high-assurance Globus subscription. A storage capability that aims to meet SOC2 compliance requirements is under development using this subscription. If you have a project that might benefit from this service please feel free to contact us at orcd-help@mit.edu.
