Overview

This class of components manages transfer capabilities between gCube infrastructure nodes ...

This document outlines the design rationale, key features, and high-level architecture, the options for their deployment and as well some use cases.

Key features

The components belonging to this class are responsible for:

reliable data transfer between Infrastructure Data Sources and Data Storages
by exploiting the uniform access interfaces provided by gCube and standard transfer protocols
structured and unstructured Data Transfer
it guarantees both Tree based and File based transfer to cover all possible iMarine use-cases
transfers to local nodes for data staging
data staging for particular use cases can be enabled on each node of the infrastructure
advanced transfer scheduling and transfer optimization
a dedicated gCube service responsible for data transfer scheduling combined to transfer optimization at the level of protocols and Access interfaces.
transfer statistics availability
transfers are logged by the system and make available to interested consumers.
transfer shares per scopes and users
a management interface is used to configure transfer shares per scopes and users at the level of Data Sources and Storages.
