Jade User Documentation
Introduction
Jade is NCSA’s tape archive system for data that contains ePHI or CUI related information and is secured in NCSA’s ACHE environment. The system is built using a 5-frame Spectra TFinity tape library outfitted with 32 TS1140 tape drives and can hold over 10PB of replicated data.
The archive is built using Versity’s ScoutAM and ScoutFS products, giving users a single archive namespace from which to stage data in and out. Access to this tape system is available directly via Globus and S3.
