Session Overview:
Globus is a data management service that enables seamless file transfers between endpoints—computers connected to the Globus file transfer network. It has become the standard in research and high-performance computing for efficiently moving large datasets, especially when transferring data to or from institutions that already provide a Globus endpoint.
In this session, we will provide an overview of Globus, including a live demonstration of how to use this service via the Globus web interface. We will also highlight how Globus connects to UBC’s Chinook service, enabling researchers to move data between Chinook and other institutions with ease.
Prerequisite: None.
