Overview

The implementation of a reliable data transfer mechanisms between the nodes of the iMarine Data e-Infrastructure is one of the main objectives when dealing with large set of multi-type datasets distributed across different repositories, like the one made available by the iMarine EA Community of Practice.

To promote an efficient and optimized consumption of these data resources, a number of components have been designed to meet the data transfer requirements.

This document outlines the design rationale and high-level architecture of such components.

Key Features

The components part of the subsystem provide the following main key features:



Main Components

the Data Scheduler & Agent components
this family of components guarantees VO/VRE Administrators the possibility to transfer data among Data Sources and Data Storages. It can be exploited as well by any client or web services to implements data movement between infrastructure nodes by relying as well on the facilities offered by the Result Set components
the Result Set components
