Transport protocols and bulk file transfer

[Steven Senger <>]

We have a call scheduled for May 15 at 1 EDT. Call info is below. 

I'm still trying to pull info together about my experiments with Phoebus - hopefully that will get done tonight. 

There appeared to be a window of opportunity to get a brief proposal regarding the Phoebus deployment in front of NTAC at the April Member Meeting. Consequently, Chet & I quickly drafted a paragraph describing the working groups discussion (also below). In the end NTAC had a full agenda and this did not come up.

================

The Transport Working Group recommends that the current Phoebus deployment be completed by adding depots at DC, Atlanta, Kansas City, Salt Lake and Seattle. Members within the group have recently been experimenting with the service in a variety of contexts including transport within distributed storage networks such as REDDnet and interactive visualization applications. These experiments have indicated that Phoebus can provide significant improvements in performance. In addition to recommending completion of the deployment the Transport group recommends that the NOC begin regular monitoring of the operational state of the depots and that tools be created to allow experimenters to determine whether the Phoebus Depots are operational over a given path. Lastly, understanding that a complete 10G deployment may be cost-prohibitive, support of 10G Phoebus nodes in strategic locations, for e.g. international peering, should be considered.
