Research Object Storage (S3): An overview for researchers and support staff (online)
Research Object Storage (S3): An overview for researchers and support staff (online)
Research generates data of all sizes, from a few megabytes to hundreds of terabytes. And let’s face it, storing all that data can be costly. In this virtual session, we’ll introduce Research Object Storage (S3), a new campus-hosted data storage service offering 50TB of no cost storage to eligible researchers. Discover how this service can significantly reduce storage costs and enable new ways to use and distribute your data. Recommended for researchers, IT, and other support staff.
