A Look Back at Last Year’s News: XSEDE's XCBC Software Bolsters Research, From Big Data to Small Campuses

Researchers across the US now have faster and easier access to top computing resources, thanks to XSEDE's software suite, created by IU Research Technologies (RT) Campus Bridging team. The XCBC software allows a campus to create a cluster, based on open-source tools, that operates much like a cluster within XSEDE. Commands on an XSEDE cluster work the same way on local clusters. XCBC also includes software that aids moving and integrating data with XSEDE, notably software used on Globus Online, XSEDE's most widely used campus-bridging data movement tool. XCBC also means educators can use and adapt XSEDE-developed training materials for use on their campuses.
