Preserving Today’s Research for Tomorrow’s Breakthroughs

Explosive data growth is challenging research computing. At scale, primary storage can become saturated by cold data, stretching disk tiers and data centers to their limits, while cloud archive models introduce cost volatility that can undermine long-term planning. What once appeared manageable can quickly become operationally and financially unsustainable.
On March 25, at 2:00 pm ET / 11:00 am PT, join experts from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Arcitecta, and Spectra Logic for a discussion on managing rapidly growing research data.
In this session, you’ll learn how Dana-Farber:
- Reduced pressure on primary disk infrastructure without compromising performance
- Repatriated cold data from high-cost cloud tiers to a secure object-based tape tier of storage to restore cost control and predictability
- Implementing intelligent metadata tagging to future-proof datasets, unlock long-term research value, and simplify retrieval
In this live webinar, we’ll explore the architectural decisions behind building a durable, intelligent archive layer designed to support both today’s research demands and tomorrow’s data growth.
If your organization is balancing HPC performance, storage economics, and long-term retention strategy, this session will offer practical, peer-driven insight into building a sustainable path forward.
