Researchers who generate or receive sequencing data and need to store, move, share, and describe it responsibly, including anyone writing a data management plan for a proposal.

What You’ll Learn

  • Which RCAC storage service fits each stage of a project: scratch for active work, Depot for shared lab data, Fortress for long-term archive
  • How to move large datasets reliably with Globus, between clusters and to and from collaborators and sequencing centers
  • What reviewers look for in a data management plan, with ready-to-adapt DMP text that describes RCAC storage

By the End of the Session, You’ll

  • Place your project’s data in the right storage service and explain why
  • Transfer large datasets with Globus instead of fragile ad hoc copies
  • Draft the storage and sharing sections of a data management plan using RCAC services
