An interoperable and secure model to support data mobility across the national research ecosystem.

As unprecedented volumes of research data are being created at increasing speeds, it is imperative data can be easily moved and shared to be findable and accessible. With the pace of research accelerating into the age of Quantum and AI, data mobility has become the life blood of modern scientific research. This talk will present some of the latest case studies where Globus has been used to facilitate data transfers and automation across diverse research domains. Achieving seamless data mobility in scientific research faces significant challenges that span technical, ethical, and institutional domains.?If moving data from A to B is difficult, it undermines all existing investments in the latest instruments, supercomputers, and virtual research environments. Looking to the future, Australia s Academic and Research Network (AARNet) is advancing Australia s national digital infrastructure to manage network speeds of up to 400 Gbps to meet the evolving needs of modern, data-driven research fields. AARNet is the not-for-profit company that operates Australia s National Research and Education Network (NREN). Our shareholders are 38 Australian universities and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). For more than 30 years, AARNet has provided reliable telecommunications services, along with an expanding range of cyber security, data, and collaboration services. Globus is a big data transfer platform that is a global leader in data movement and distributed user networks. Globus allows users to transfer terabytes (or more) scheduled using a simple a web-interface, a feat that would be impossible using normal file transfer tools.
