HECN group achieves record network data transfer rate

2013.12.20

At SuperComputing 2013 in Denver, Colorado, the High End Computer Networking (HECN, 606.1) Team achieved a record network data transfer rate of over 91 Gigabits per second (Gbps) for a disk-to-disk file transfer between a single pair of high performance RAID servers across a 100 Gbps Wide Area Network (WAN), with one server located at SC13 and the other at NASA Goddard. This record was made possible by collaborating with the Mid-Atlantic Crossroads (MAX), the Department of Energy's ESnet, Brocade, the University of Chicago's Laboratory for Advanced Computing (LAC), and Northwestern University's International Center for Advanced Internet Research (iCAIR).
