National Storage Infrastructure
The National Storage Infrastructure will have 2 components:
| Object Storage |
A fully distributed object storage system spanning all 4 sites, with geo-redundancy, replication and universal access. |
| Long-term File Storage |
Long-term file storage sites (similar to Silo) at SFU and the University of Waterloo. Each site will have tape backup. |
