About the Webinar

The Discovery Environment (DE) will soon support a new backend feature that gives you direct access to your data in the CyVerse Data Store, providing a harmonized view of all your CyVerse data and even better, eliminating the need to copy data into and out of apps in the DE and VICE. In this webinar, both CyVerse users and scientific infrastructure developers will get a preview of how CyVerse runs applications using iRODS (Integrated Rule Oriented Data Services) and Kubernetes along with a new storage software (the iRODS CSI driver) developed by CyVerse's Illyoung Choi. Then CyVerse's Sarah Roberts will demonstrate how the iRODS CSI driver offers time-saving shortcuts to accessing your data within VICE apps. Please join us!

What You'll Learn

  • What the iRODS Container Storage Interface (CSI) Driver is and does
  • How this new feature enables direct access between your Data Store and Discovery Environment/VICE apps
  • When the iRODS CSI Driver will be available in DE operations
