ACCS Information Session: Connecting to and using Globus for research data transfer

An informational webinar for researchers and support staff (research and IT) dealing with large-volume data transfers. This event was run by Jay van Schyndel (Monash University) and Chris Myers (AARNet) in September 2021.

Keen on learning how to use Globus to transfer large and complex datasets from one location to another? — for example, transfer data from your point of acquisition to an analysis platform like the Characterisation Virtual Laboratory (CVL).

Watch the recording of this information session on Globus.

Topics covered:

• What is Globus?

• Types of endpoints - standard, high assurance, sensitive data (HIPAA) & how to determine which type of endpoint is needed for your data type

• licensing fees + contracts

• Globus personal connect installation - setting up your own endpoint

• How to find an endpoint at the processing facility (quick demo of how to find your endpoints).
