Data Den Research Archive<\/a> is a service for preserving electronic data generated from research activities. It is a low-cost, highly durable storage system and is the largest storage system operated by ARC. Storing of sensitive data (including HIPAA and FERPA) is now supported (visit the Sensitive Data Guide<\/a> for full details). This service is part of the U-M Research Computing Package (UMRCP)<\/a> that provides storage allocations to researchers. Most researchers will not have to pay for Data Den.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A disk-caching, tape-backed archive, this storage service is best for data that researchers do not need regularly, but still need to keep because of grant requirements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cData Den is a good place to keep research data past the life of the grant,\u201d said Jeremy Hallum, ARC research computing manager. \u201cARC can store data that researchers need to keep for five to ten years.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hallum goes on to say that Data Den is only available in a replicated format. \u201cVolumes of data are duplicated between servers or clusters for disaster recovery so research data is very safe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data Den can be part of a well-organized data management plan providing international data sharing, encryption, and data durability. Jerome Kinlaw, ARC research storage lead, said that the Globus<\/a> File Transfer service works well for data management. \u201cGlobus is easy to use for moving data in and out of Data Den.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ITS U-M Research Computing Package (UMRCP)<\/a> provides 100 terabytes (TB) of Data Den storage to qualified researchers. This 100 TB can be divided between restricted and non-restricted variants of Data Den for use as needed. (The ITS Data Storage Finder<\/a> can help researchers find the right storage solutions to meet their needs.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m pleased that Data Den now offers options for sensitive data, and that researchers can take advantage of the UMRCP<\/a> allocations,\u201d said Brock Palen, ARC director. \u201cWe want to lighten the load so that researchers can do what they do best, and our services are now more cost effective than ever.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
