Description

At the South African National Research Network (SANReN), South African researchers can participate in global research efforts. We do this by ensuring that local researchers can share their data efficiently with international researchers and that they can access data generated or processed abroad as efficiently as possible. This has been made possible by the implementation of 100Gbps Data Transfer Nodes (DTN) deployed for the South African research and education community.

What will the TNC audience take away from your talk?

The value of a shared community Data Transfer Node to facilitate data transfers for researcher more effectively. Evidence of its successful implementation in South Africa. Guidance on how to participate in this initiative.
