The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at The University of Texas at Austin has expanded its ecosystem of hardware resources to further support data driven science. In September, the center will deploy a DataDirect Networks (DDN) high-performance, scalable global file system (GFS) that will be accessible to all of TACC's computing and visualization systems and easily expandable in the coming years. Data driven science is emerging alongside modeling and simulation as another important computational methodology that uses high-end computing and storage systems. In this mode, vast amounts of digital data, collected by digital instruments such as gene sequencers, electron microscopes, satellite-based imagers and distributed sensor networks, can be mined for scientific insights.
