+ Campus File Storage non-replicated / Research Services +

+ File Services for Research provides Brown University research departments + with a location in which files can be stored, backed up, and shared with members + of the Brown community using Brown ID’s and groups. Space is allocated to each + research lab or PI with an ITHelp request , security groups are required to define + access to the data. The data is protected locally via snapshots but doesn’t have + geo-redundancy (secondary copy). +

+ Campus File Storage Replicated / Research Services +

+ File Services for Research provides Brown University research departments + with a location in which files can be stored, backed up, and shared with + members of the Brown community using Brown ID’s and groups. Space is allocated + to each research lab or PI with an ITHelp request , security groups are + required to define access to the data. The data is replicated daily to our + disaster recovery site for True geo-redundant data protection. The data is + accessible on Brown's campus networks (including VPN and wireless). +

+ +
+ +
+ Oscar Storage +

+ Oscar storage also known as Computational Data Storage is a high-performance + data storage system which is accessible from any computer connected to Brown's + campus network, or from outside the network via ssh. What sets this option apart + from the others is that it is directly connected to Brown’s primary supercomputer, + “Oscar”, making computation easier. If you don’t intend to compute your data with + Brown’s supercomputer, you may consider using Campus File Storage instead. You could + also use Oscar storage for computing and then move your results to Campus File Storage + for greater accessibility, reliability, and protection. +

+ +
+ +
+ Stronghold +

+ Stronghold + is a secure computing and storage environment that enables Brown researchers to analyze sensitive data + while complying with regulatory or contractual requirements. +

+ +
+ +
+ Hibernate +

+ Hibernate is a secure, reliable, + research data archive solution. Hibernate is a Brown OIT archival service for the + research community to migrate inactive data off active Network-attached storage (NAS) + platforms onto a lower cost, long-term retention environment. +

+ +
+ +
+ Lab Archives +

+ LabArchives is a cloud-based electronic lab notebook that can be used by researchers, + instructors, and students for input and organization of laboratory data, information + sharing, and collaboration, and for saving historical versions of files. It is appropriate + for use in a wide variety of laboratories, including biological sciences, chemistry and + physical sciences, and engineering, among others. +

+

+ LabArchives at Brown provides unlimited storage space. The current size limit per file is 4GB. +

+

+ LabArchives at Brown is not approved for storing files containing Personally Identifiable + Information (PII), Protected Health Information (PHI), or Brown Restricted Information. +

+ +
+ +
+ Brown Digital Library +

+ The Brown Digital Repository (BDR) is a place to gather, index, store, preserve, and make + available digital assets produced via the scholarly, instructional, research, and administrative + activities at Brown. +

+

The Brown University Library maintains the repository as a service to the Brown community; it provides:

+ +

+ Faculty and researchers interested in using the Brown Digital Repository as a platform for + programmatic data management, storage, and publication should contact the Library (bdr@brown.edu) + for information about opportunities for research consulting and project development support. +

+ +
+ +
+ Google Drive +

+ Google Drive gives you space to store and share documents. The native Google document + formats allow for real-time collaboration and file history. You can also store unconverted files + of various types in your Google Drive. It's easy to share files with members of the Brown community + (including Google Groups) and non-Brown Google accounts; files can be shared with view-only, comment, + or edit access. Google also has a really nice feature where you can scan in handwritten documents and + have them converted to text. You can access files on the web, through a mobile app, or by installing + Google Drive on your computer (which makes it act like a folder on your computer). +
